Critical-level Interaction

Critical-Level Interaction is a theoretical construct in atmospheric dynamics that identifies the altitude at which the horizontal wind speed matches the phase speed of a mountain wave, leading to wave absorption, reflection, or critical layer formation due to resonant energy transfer between the flow and the wave.
