Abstract The notion of balance has played an important role in data assimilation. However, traditional ideas have been based on dry dynamics, without moisture. Recently, the balanced moisture formulated moist dynamics. Here, goal is to investigate assimilation strategies with moisture, and assess impact accounting for moisture's unbalanced components. To illustrate main ideas, examples are presented using a simple model consisting linear, moist, shallow‐water equations stochastic forcing,...

Abstract Atmospheric flows are often decomposed into balanced (low frequency) and unbalanced (high components. For a dry atmosphere, it is known that single mode, the potential vorticity (PV), enough to describe flow determine its evolution. moist atmosphere with phase changes, on other hand, balanced–unbalanced decompositions involve additional complexity. In this paper, we illustrate modes, beyond PV, arise from moisture. To support motivate discussion, consider arising simplified...

Atmospheric fronts include cold fronts, warm and stationary they can be idealized as boundaries between two air masses with different temperatures other properties. Simple exact solutions have previously been presented through the Margules relations, but are lacking in aspects: do not propagate involve water vapor, clouds, or precipitation. Here, these aspects included by considering recently derived precipitating quasi-geostrophic (PQG) equations. The PQG equations shown to that...

In this study the influence of stratification on surface tidal elevations in a two-layer analytical model is examined. The assumes linearized, non-rotating, shallow-water dynamics one dimension with astronomical forcing and allows for arbitrary topography. Using natural modal separation, both large scale (barotropic) small (baroclinic) components elevation are shown to be comparably affected by stratification. It also that topography basin boundaries affect sensitivity barotropic tide...
