abstract = {Due to their importance for large-scale circulations and
their contributionto the energy and momentum budget of the
middle atmosphere, gravity waves have been subject of
investigation for manyin-situ and satellite measurements.
These observations show that the horizontal wavelength of a
gravity wave can be as short as a few kilometers, hence,
they cannot be directly resolved by General Circulation
Models (GCM)s. For this reason, their propagation and
interaction with the background atmosphere have to be
parametrized. These gravity wave parametrizations play an
important role in state-of-the-art GCMs as they contribute
to the energy and momentum budget of the middle atmosphere
and directly influence the model dynamics. For technical
reasons, most gravity wave parametrizations restrict the
propagation of gravity waves to the vertical direction.
Consequently, modeled distributions of momentum flux and
gravity wave drag show remarkable deviations from the
three-dimensional propagation as shown in this thesis. The
most obvious differences found in the three-dimensional case
are the poleward directed meridional drag and the shift of
the zonal drag maximum towards higher latitudes in the
winter hemisphere. Another simplification of gravity wave
parametrizations is the homogeneous and isotropic
non-orographic launch distribution, which is unable to
resolve single gravity wave sources. [...]},
