Transverse banding in jet stream cirrus / Brian Hammond, supervising meteorologist.: En57-44/82-001E-PDF
"The jet stream downwind from a ridge is often hard to locate using satellite pictures because there is little or no cloud associated. However, in the following example the jet stream could be located using patches of cirrus cloud. This example is interesting in that transverse banding was evident in the cirrus jet stream cloud. The question arises - what causes this banding?"
