File talk:Wavecloudsduval.jpg

There are discrepancies between the description on this image and how it is described on other pages. In particular, it is not clear if this is an image of wave clouds or Kelvin-Helmholtz instability. For more, compare the usage in these places: If someone really knows what this is, could you please fix the ambiguity and discrepancies between the pages? --Kaze0010 02:50, 29 June 2006 (UTC)
 * http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Image:Wavecloudsduval.jpg describes it as a wave cloud
 * Orographic lift describes it as a wave cloud
 * Kelvin-Helmholtz instability describes it as "a KH instability rendered visible by clouds over Mount Duval in Australia"
 * Talk:Wave cloud caught my curiousity and led me to discover (and report) this discrepancy.


 * It's my photo. When I took it I assumed I was looking at wave clouds and that's why the image has that title and it was uploaded to go in the wave cloud article. Someone there (who presumably has more knowledge on the subject than I) said it wasn't wave clouds it was K-H instability, so the image got moved and relabelled (though not renamed).

 * Actually I wasn't trying to point out the filename. I was just bringing awareness to the fact that the Orographic lift article is using it as an example of wave clouds, when it may not be that.  I can't vouch for its either being wave clouds or K-H instability as I don't know enough about these phenomena.  Since you brought the filename up, if these are really K-H instability, is it possible to rename the file to prevent other wiki users from getting confused or misusing the image as an example of which it is not? --Kaze0010 02:26, 30 June 2006 (UTC)
