Abstract

The kinetic energy distribution of air motions above Russia. Reference-book aerological data have been employed for examining the kinetic energy distribution of the averaged and turbulent air motions above Russia. Annual variations are shown for the background energy characteristics of the batmospheric fluxes. The most energeticallyimportant atmospheric layers and active zones have been revealed – particularly, over the West-Siberian lowlands.
