abstract = {The spectral distribution in terms of horizontal and
vertical wavenumber is deduced for gravity wave (GW)
momentum flux observations from space for the first time.
The paper focuses on High Resolution Dynamics Limb Sounder
(HIRDLS) observations in the subtropics and compares spectra
over particularly strong deep convective forcing with a
background inferred from regions of less momentum flux. The
deep convective spectra are strongly enhanced at high
horizontal wavenumbers over a wide range of vertical
wavenumbers and phase speeds. The observations indicate that
GWs generated by deep convection are an important
contribution on top of the background spectrum due to other
GW sources (at least about $20-30\%$ on zonal average is
from convective GWs). The implications for global modeling
are discussed. Citation: Ern, M., and P. Preusse (2012),
