Abstract

Envisat ASAR images are used to observe atmospheric gravity waves over the East China Sea. Several case studies are presented in detail. It is shown that the atmospheric gravity waves are well organized in the form of wave packets. The wavelengths are ranging from 0.5 to 10 km. The atmospheric gravity waves locate near the stationary meteorological fronts. The generation mechanism is discussed.
