Abstract

The helicity of atmospheric disturbances caused by inhomogeneities in the gravity field has been estimated theoretically. This estimation was carried out with the use of a three-dimensional stationary analytical model of linear disturbances induced by spatial inhomogeneities of the gravity field into a background geostrophic flow of a stratified rotating medium (atmosphere). It has been concluded based on the solution found that the amplitude of the helicity of emerging disturbances can be noticeable in highly anomalous regions.
