Why anisotropic turbulence matters: another reply
Abstract. We continue the debate on anisotropic but scaling turbulence and its effect on aircraft measurements of turbulence (cf. Lindborg et al., 2010a, b); hereafter LTNCG1, LTNCG2). We revisit the repeatedly presented back-of-the-envelope calculation and discuss wind statistics on real isobars. We then discuss theoretical and empirical evidence that a k−5/3 horizontal wind spectrum could extend out to planetary scales.
