Factors affecting atmospheric vertical motions as analyzed with a generalized omega equation and the OpenIFS model

A statistical analysis of the physical causes of atmospheric vertical motions is conducted using a generalized omega equation and a one-year simulation with the OpenIFS atmospheric model. Using hourly output from the model, the vertical motions associated with vorticity advection, thermal advection,...
