Abstract: The effects of the large-scale wind and temperature fields on the development of the sea breeze circulation is studied with the aid of a theoretical model. The model, which applies to a straight coastline, is integrated ...

Abstract: A set of prediction equations based on a 2½-dimensional model is derived. These equations are integrated graphically for ten cases of sea-level cyclogenesis. The resulting forecasts for the 1000-mb surface indicate accuracies ...

Abstract: A general theoretical model has been designed to analyze the properties of perturbations induced when air flows over an isolated warm portion of the earth's surface. The dependence of these perturbations on wind and ...

Abstract: The energetics of a numerically simulated easterly wave is studied. A quasi-geostrophic model is used. The easterly wave is generated by specifying a diabatic heating wave which represents the effects of deep cumulus ...

Abstract: The thermal and moisture structures of the ITCZ over the Eastern Pacific-Central American region have been studied during a selected four-day period in June 1979 (FGGE). Composite structures were constructed by using ...

Abstract: This paper describes a combined observational and theoretical study of a lake breeze over the southern shore of Lake Ontario on 3 October 1972. The structure of the lake breeze circulation and its variations in time were ...

Abstract: The vorticity budget of a numerically simulated easterly wave is studied, with special emphasis on examining the effects of cumulus convective transport. A quasi-geostrophic model is used. The easterly wave is generated ...

Abstract: An experiment was conducted during the period 11 January to 21 February 1956, for the purpose of determining the manner in which graphical integrations can best be used in providing prognostic charts for sea level and for ...

Abstract: Terrain features and variations in the depth of the atmospheric boundary layer produce local variations in wind, and these variations are not depicted well by standard weather reports. We have developed a diagnostic model ...
