RISUnderstanding Satellite-Observed Mountain-Wave Signatures Using High-Resolution Numerical Model Data
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Prior work has shown that pilot reports of severe turbulence over Colorado often occur when complex interference or crossing wave patterns are present in satellite water vapor imagery downstream of the Rocky Mountains. To ...
Mountain Wave Signatures in MODIS 6.7-μm Imagery and Their Relation to Pilot Reports of Turbulence
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: A technique for nowcasting turbulent mountain waves over the Front Range of the state of Colorado is investigated using Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS) water vapor (6.7 ?m) channel imagery. Pilot ...
Convectively Induced Transverse Band Signatures in Satellite Imagery
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Transverse cirrus bands have commonly been observed in the outflow of thunderstorms, though little literature exists on the subject. The primary objective of this paper is to characterize the transverse band signature in ...
BATAL: The Balloon Measurement Campaigns of the Asian Tropopause Aerosol Layer
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: AbstractWe describe and show results from a series of field campaigns that used balloonborne instruments launched from India and Saudi Arabia during the summers 2014?17 to study the nature, formation, and impacts of the ...
