Fig. 2From: Sensitivity study for ICON tidal analysisFirst antisymmetric HME amplitudes and phases for zonal wind (U) for a, b SW2 and c, d DE3. The latitude structure HME2 amplitude for DW1 does not resemble the first antisymmetric mode of classical tidal theory (maxima near ± 24° latitude) due to the strong influence of molecular dissipation, which couples the vertically-propagating DW1 with short vertical wavelength into an evanescent tidal modeBack to article page
