RISTrapped Lee Waves Observed during PYREX by Constant Volume Balloons: Comparison with Meso-NH Simulations
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The main objective of the present paper is the use of a constant volume balloon (CVB) as a tool to (i) study trapped lee waves and (ii) assess the forecasting capability of a nonhydrostatic numerical model. Then, CVB data ...
Microphysics of Clouds Initiated from a 1000 MW Dry Heat Source in Comparison with Environmental Clods—A Statistical Study
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: To evaluate potential atmospheric impacts of wate heat released by dry cooling towers, studies have been made of an oil burning system (the ?Météotron?), which emits sensible heat at a rate of ? 1000 MW and large quantities ...
Use of the Doppler Spectral Width to Improve the Estimation of the Convective Boundary Layer Height from UHF Wind Profiler Observations
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Enhancement of the air refractive index structure parameter C2n often occurs at the top of the convective boundary layer (CBL), where the absolute values of the vertical gradients of virtual potential temperature and mixing ...
