Rossby waves are large - scale atmospheric and oceanic waves that circle the globe.

Kelvin waves are different types of waves (e.g., in the context of fluid dynamics in a rotating system with a boundary), Kryptonian is a fictional term (from Superman's home planet in fiction), Bjerknes is associated with concepts like Bjerknes circulation theorem (more about circulation in fluid - like systems in meteorology), and Kepler is a famous astronomer (known for laws of planetary motion).

B. Rossby
