Abstract

By using full-implicit-continuous-Eulerian （FICE） scheme, and taking the atmospheric basic motion equations in 3-dimensional global coordination as the governing equations, a numerical simulation of nonlinear propagation of a gravity-wave packet in mesosphere is presented. The numerical results perfectly show the nonlinear propagation of a gravity-wave packet in mesosphere. A comparison of the numerical results with the linear gravity-wave theories is also presented.
