ABSTRACT
Atmospheric gravity waves have a major affect on atmospheric circulation, structure and
stability on a global scale. Gravity waves can be generated by convection, but in many
cases it is difficult to link convection directly to a specific wave event. In this research, the
authors examine an event on January 12, 2003, when convective waves were clearly generated
