Sampling Errors in Observed Gravity Wave Momentum Fluxes from Vertical and Tilted Profiles
Observations from radiosondes or from vertically pointing remote sensing profilers are often used to estimate the vertical flux of momentum due to gravity waves. For planar, monochromatic waves, these vertically integrated fluxes are equal to the phase averaged flux and equivalent to the horizontal...
