The concepts of mountain-induced wave drag are applied to the smaller scale problem of the boundary layer over complex terrain. It is found that the Reynolds stress and surface drag caused by surface-generated waves can be at least as large as those conventionally associated with turbulence. Conditi

## Abstract An integral expression is developed for the mountain wave drag (MWD) associated with linearized, hydrostatic flow over two infinitely long, bell‐shaped ridges. This analysis extends previous studies of airflow over a single ridge. The MWD is expressed in canonical form with three terms:

## Abstract The generation of linear internal gravity waves by the flow over two idealized mountains, whose summits are aligned in the same direction as the mean wind, is studied. In particular, the sensitivity of the wave drag to the downwind distance between the mountains is examined by using a t

## Abstract Most schemes to parametrize gravity‐wave drag effectively assume that the total wave‐stress is associated with a single wave‐vector pointing in the direction of the stress vector. However, the wave stress over real terrain is an integral over all azimuthal directions of wave‐vector cont
