Abstract

Glider pilots often observed wave lift which could not be interpreted as the well known lift of lee waves becasue there was insufficient windspeed across orographic obstacles or there were no ridges or for both reasons....  The four cases discussed of wave flow above convection streets have shown mainly two criteria for a favorable synoptic situation.....
