Bullwhipilmiön
Bullwhipilmiön is a proposed atmospheric phenomenon described as a sequence of rapid, evenly spaced gusts that propagate along a relatively straight ground-ward path. The event is noted for producing brief, localized turbulence and a crack-like sound reminiscent of a bullwhip. The name is a compound of the English term bullwhip and the Finnish ilmiö, meaning phenomenon.
Characteristics commonly associated with bullwhipilmiön include a stable or mildly stratified lower atmosphere with notable low-level
Proposed mechanisms focus on the interaction between boundary-layer shear and propagating atmospheric waves. The leading explanation
Research and significance are mainly in the realm of theoretical and observational atmospheric science. Methods used
