An extraordinarily deep local depression formed on the lee side of a mountain range is investigated under a nonhydrostatic condition and is compared with the results of a hydrostatic model (Tomine, 1984). It is found that nonhydrostatic effects on the large amplitude mountain wave seem insignificant within a framework of the present model.
