RISClimatology of Back Trajectories from Israel Based on Synoptic Analysis
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The Air Resources Laboratory's trajectory model was used to calculate five-day back trajectories from Israel at the 850 mb pressure surface for five years (January 1978?December 1982). These air flow patterns were evaluated ...
The Temporal Behavior of the Atmospheric Boundary Layer in Israel
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Upper-air measurements collected for three consecutive years (1987?89) from the Israel Meteorological Service permanent sounding site, in Beit-Dagan, Israel, enabled the temporal behavior of the atmospheric boundary layer ...
The Influence of Meteorological Conditions and Atmospheric Circulation Types on PM10 and Visibility in Tel Aviv
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: A 3-yr dataset (February 2000?November 2002) of 30-min averages for particulates, visibility, and meteorological data were analyzed to examine the dependence of particulate matter of less than 10 ?m in diameter (PM10) mass ...
Ozone Concentration Profiles in the Los Angeles Basin A Possible Similarity in the Build-up Mechanism of Inland Surface Ozone in Israel
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: This paper analyzes some measurements of the Southern California Air Quality Study, which collected a comprehensive air quality, meteorological, and emissions database in the Los Angeles Basin. This analysis emphasizes the ...
Heavy Rain in the Middle East Related to Unusual Jet Stream Properties
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: A major and fatal flooding event illustrative of rare similar cases in the Middle East was related to unusual characteristics of the jet stream. Contrary to the usual conditions, the jet stream had anticyclonic curvature ...
On the Ratio of Sulfur Dioxide to Nitrogen Oxides as an Indicator of Air Pollution Sources
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The ratio of sulfur dioxide to nitrogen oxides (RSN = SO2/NOx) is one indicator of air pollution sources. The role of this ratio in source attribution is illustrated here for the Ashdod area, located in the southern coastal ...
The Spatial and Temporal Behavior of the Mixed Layer in Israel
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: A detailed study to determine the spatial and temporal behavior of the coastal and inland mixed layer in Israel was undertaken. Over 300 upper air measurements (minisonde and airplane) from the central and southern parts ...
Lidar Observation of the Atmospheric Boundary Layer in Jerusalem
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The temporal variation of the atmospheric boundary layer (ABL) over Jerusalem is accurately measured by means of a lidar system. The findings are explained and discussed based on the specific synoptic situation of typical ...
Spatial and Structural Variation of the Atmospheric Boundary Layer during Summer in Israel—Profiler and Rawinsonde Measurements
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: An opportunity to improve understanding related to the structure of the atmospheric boundary layer (ABL) in Israel along the coastal region environs emerged in April 1997 when the Israel Electric Corporation, Ltd. (IEC), ...
