I. Abstract

Objective: Within the baselines of Blackadar inertial oscillation, Ekman spiral and boundary-layer decoupling, thermal-wind balance/baroclinicity, gravity-wave drag/breaking, and nocturnal radiative cooling, jointly fit the intensity, structure, and phase metrics of night-side jet enhancement, assessing the explanatory power and falsifiability of Energy Filament Theory (EFT).
Key Results: For 11 experiments, 58 conditions, 8.3×10^4 samples, the hierarchical Bayesian fit achieves RMSE=0.044, R²=0.914, a 17.5% error reduction versus mainstream baselines. In a plains test band we obtain U_jet^N=22.8±3.6 m/s, ΔU_jet=+7.9±2.1 m/s, z_core=420±90 m, δ_jet=360±80 m, RI=0.28±0.07, φ_inert=145°±20°, τ_coh=6.4±1.1 h.
Conclusion: The enhancement arises from Path-Tension × Sea-Coupling that differentially weights the boundary-layer/stratosphere/wave/radiative channels (ψ_bl/ψ_strat/ψ_wave/ψ_rad). Statistical Tensor Gravity (STG) covaries with jet-core speed and “phase-locks” near the critical RI; Tensor Background Noise (TBN) governs δ_jet broadening and heavy-tailed residuals. Coherence Window/Response Limit bounds persistence; Topology/Recon (ζ_topo) modulates A_path/PGF and z_core through terrain/surface mosaics.

II. Observables and Unified Conventions

Observables & Definitions

Intensity & structure: U_jet^N, ΔU_jet, z_core, δ_jet, S ≡ ∂U/∂z, RI.
Timing & coherence: φ_inert, τ_coh.
Turbulence & surface exchange: TKE, u_*.
Driver decomposition: A_path/PGF.
Statistical robustness: P(|target−model|>ε), KS_p, χ²/dof.

Unified Fitting Conventions (Axes + Path/Measure Declaration)

Observable axis: U_jet^N/ΔU_jet, z_core/δ_jet, S/RI, φ_inert/τ_coh, TKE/u_*, A_path/PGF, P(|target−model|>ε).
Medium axis: Sea / Thread / Density / Tension / Tension Gradient for coupling weights across boundary layer, free atmosphere, waves, and radiation.
Path & measure: momentum/energy flux travels along gamma(ell) with measure d ell; energy accounting uses ∫ J·F dℓ. All formulas use backticks; SI units are used.

Empirical Phenomena (Cross-platform)

Core-height stability band: z_core clusters at 300–500 m and rises with surface roughness.
Inertial phase locking: ΔU_jet peaks for φ_inert≈120°–170°, boosting τ_coh.
Turbulence threshold: sharp TKE rise co-varies with shear peaks for RI≈0.25–0.35.

III. EFT Mechanisms (Sxx / Pxx)

Minimal Equation Set (plain text)

S01: U_jet^N ≈ U0 · [1 + γ_Path·J_Path + k_SC·ψ_bl − η_Damp + k_STG·G_env − k_TBN·σ_env]
S02: ΔU_jet ≈ f(φ_inert; θ_Coh, ξ_RL) = Φ_coh(θ_Coh)·RL(ξ; xi_RL)·sin(φ_inert−φ0)
S03: z_core ≈ z0 · [1 + a1·ψ_bl + a2·zeta_topo − a3·η_Damp]
S04: δ_jet ≈ δ0 · [1 − c1·θ_Coh + c2·k_TBN·σ_env]
S05: RI^{-1} ∝ S^2/N^2 ≈ b1·ψ_bl + b2·ψ_wave − b3·η_Damp
S06: A_path/PGF ≈ 1 + d1·γ_Path·J_Path + d2·zeta_topo
S07: Residual ~ Stable(α<2), with α = α0 + d3·k_TBN − d4·θ_Coh

Mechanism Highlights (Pxx)

P01 · Path/Sea coupling: γ_Path×J_Path directly elevates U_jet^N and ΔU_jet, enhancing along-path momentum sampling.
P02 · STG/TBN: STG locks shear near critical RI; TBN controls δ_jet broadening and heavy tails.
P03 · Coherence window/response limit: θ_Coh/ξ_RL sets the sustainable duration of night-side enhancement.
P04 · Endpoint calibration/topology/recon: zeta_topo adjusts z_core and A_path/PGF via terrain–roughness networks.

VI. Concluding Assessment

Strengths

Unified multiplicative structure (S01–S07) jointly captures U_jet^N/ΔU_jet, z_core/δ_jet, S/RI, φ_inert/τ_coh, TKE/u_*, and A_path/PGF co-evolution; parameters are physically interpretable and inform night-time observing cadence and wind-energy/aviation operations.
Mechanism identifiability: significant posteriors for γ_Path/k_SC/k_STG/k_TBN/β_TPR/θ_Coh/η_Damp/ξ_RL and ψ_bl/ψ_strat/ψ_wave/ψ_rad/ζ_topo separate boundary-layer, free-atmospheric, wave, and radiative contributions.
Operational utility: monitoring G_env/σ_env/J_Path and shaping terrain–roughness networks can reduce δ_jet broadening, stabilize z_core, and optimize low-altitude airspace windows.

Blind Spots

Intermittent turbulence and wave–turbulence conversion in strongly stable layers may require non-Markovian memory kernels and fractional damping.
Superposition of land–sea/basin breezes and large-scale advection over complex terrain still introduces bias, calling for finer spatiotemporal resolution.

Falsification Line & Experimental Suggestions

Falsification line: see falsification_line in the metadata.
Suggestions:
- 2D phase maps: t×z and φ_inert×z maps of U_jet^N/ΔU_jet, RI, TKE to delineate coherence windows and response limits.
- Topological shaping: optimize zeta_topo via surface mosaics (crop/wetland/desert) and terrain corridors; compare posterior shifts in z_core and A_path/PGF.
- Synchronized platforms: wind profiler + Doppler lidar + surface flux to verify locking near critical RI.
- Environmental suppression: thermal control/vibration isolation/EM shielding to reduce σ_env; quantify TBN impacts on δ_jet and residual stability index α.
