Observations and Mixed-Layer Modeling of a Terrain-Induced Mesoscale Gyre: The Denver Cyclone
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: In northeastern Colorado a frequently observed feature of the surface wind field is a stationary, terrain-induced mesoscale gyre, which is often associated with the formation of severe weather. Because of the gyre's proximity ...

Abstract: In northeastern Colorado a frequently observed feature of the surface wind field is a stationary, terrain-induced mesoscale gyre, which is often associated with the formation of severe weather. Because of the gyre/s proximity ...
Boundary-Layer Transition across a Stratocumulus Cloud Edge in a Coastal Zone
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: We examine the lateral transition from a stratocumulus-covered boundary layer to a clear-sky convective boundary layer during onshore flow in a coastal environment, using both mobile sodar observations and a numerical ...
