Abstract: A two-dimensional theoretical model is developed to analyze the properties of perturbations induced when air flows over an isolated warm portion of the earth's surface. The model equations include continuity equations that ...

Abstract: In Part I of the two-part paper, we describe the results of a field program that was especially designed for testing the results of a theoretical model. The observations included measurements by an instrumented aircraft ...

Abstract: This Note describes a method of deriving a modified form of the hydrostatic equation by making allowance for the presence of moisture in an atmospheric column.

Abstract: The Rand two-level general circulation model has been integrated to compute ground surface (bare land) temperature by solving: 1) the interface heat balance equation without soil heat flux; 2) the interface heat balance ...

Abstract: A two-dimensional, vertical cross section, numerical atmospheric mesoscale model has been applied to study the potential local/regional atmospheric effects of the installation of a 100 MWe solar thermal central receiver ...

Abstract: The Pennsylvania State University (PSU)/National Center for Atmospheric Research (NCAR) mesoscale model was modified and used to simulate the evolution of meteorological conditions in the vicinity of St. Louis, Missouri, ...
