Abstract: Experiments were made in prediction of the elevation of warm season shower-tops, both prevailing and highest, using a one-dimensional cloud model run on a real-time minicomputer system. A forecaster inter-actively altered ...

Abstract: Real-time computer graphics systems are being introduced into weather stations throughout the United States. A sample of student forecasters used such a system to solve specific specialized forecasting problems. Results ...

Abstract: A method of introducing subsynoptic-scale initial data into a six-level primitive equation model is presented. Vorticity perturbations on the scale of subsynoptic disturbances are added to the initial winds; the amplitudes ...

Abstract: Multiple linear regression is used to relate monthly means and year-to-year changes of the monthly mean planetary albedo and infrared flux leaving the atmosphere, as measured by NOAA satellites, to certain meteorological ...

Abstract: Objective analyses on vertical cross sections are presented as examples of the type of real-time product available on the Penn State, Department of Meteorology, on-line minicomputer. The analyses are not new, but their ...
