Long Wave
A large wave in the polar jet stream and the westerlies that extends from the middle to the upper troposphere. Often associated with the formation of a mid-latitude cyclone at the ground surface. Contrasts with short waves. Also called Rossby waves. Found op http://www.physicalgeography.net/physgeoglos/l.html
