Initiation of Deep Convection along Boundary Layer Convergence Lines in a Semitropical Environment
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The initiation of deep convection through forcing along boundary layer convergence lines is examined using observations from the Convection and Precipitation/Electrification Experiment conducted in east-central Florida ...
The Generation and Propagation of a Nocturnal Squall Line. Part I: Observations and Implications for Mesoscale Predictability
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The initiation and forcing of a squall line on 26?27 May 1985 near Wichita, Kansas is examined. The squall line is secondary convection in the sense that it is preceded in the diurnal cycle by other mesoscale convective ...
The Generation and Propagation of a Nocturnal Squall Line. Part II: Numerical Simulations
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The mechanisms behind the convective regeneration that occurred at midnight on 26 May 1985 in the Kansas PRE-STORM network (described in Part I) are examined with a numerical cloud model. Three mechanisms that could have ...
