Asset ID: 2988 | Title: Altostratus Asperitas
Concept: Gravity waves propagating along an elevated inversion layer create the undulating form known as asperitas.
Detail: The Cloud Appreciation Society successfully petitioned the World Meteorological Society to recognize a new variety of stratiform clouds - asperitas (aka asperatus). Meaning "roughened", the clouds resemble the surface of sea, and indeed mark the propagation of internal gravity waves within the inversion in which the cloud occurs.
