Abstract: Extensive observations were made on aircraft flights in the marine layer over the Pacific Ocean off the coast of southern California. We interpret some of the cloud patterns as convective and some as gravity wave phenomena. ...

Abstract: Transosonde balloon data are analyzed to provide a measure of the dispersion on a large scale in the upper atmosphere. An expression for the autocorrelation function is inferred from synoptic experience and is applied to ...

Abstract: The turbulent temperature structure and winds in thermal convective plumes over prairie grassland have been investigated with an acoustic echo sounder system. Three spaced acoustic antennas, with two inclined at 45° ...
