While it has long been postulated that stationary wave                     patterns in the atmosphere are predictable, it has never been                   satisfactorily demonstrated that this is the case.  A comparison                of simulations with a simplified version and a fully non-linear                 version of a general circulation model can be used to determine                 the potential predictability of stationary waves.  This project                 focuses on examination of the causes for maintenance of                         stationary waves and their anomalies in the  NMC General                        Circulation Model.   The technical tools to be used are                         discretized, linearized models of the steady state response of                  the model atmosphere to specified forcing such as orography and                 heating.  The project will provide for the first time a                         quantitative and definitive analysis of what causes stationary                  waves in the NMC General Circulation Model.  This will lay the                  foundation for research on stationary waves in the real                         atmosphere as well as on the feasibility of dynamical extended                  range prediction.
