## Abstract Although orographic lee waves are probably common over the British Isles, their amplitude is so critically dependent on airstream characteristics and on the scale of local topography that they are likely to be insignificant unless a variety of conditions is satisfied. Precise criteria f
## Abstract The problem of what second boundary condition (the first being the ground profile) should be applied to the differential equation for the variation with height of the wave amplitude is considered and it is thought that solutions corresponding to upward and downward progressing waves are
## Abstract Three kinds of flow over unlevel ground are defined according to their scale β aerodynamic, barostromatic, and geostrophic flow β and it is seen that the practical difficulties in the way of obtaining the correct value of the relevant nonβdimensional numbers in model experiments are alm
