Abstract: This study employs a Vortex Tracking Semispectral (VTSS) model cast in cylindrical coordinates that move with the vortex. Variables are represented spectrally in azimuth only, so that the model becomes a set of linear ...

Abstract: We suggest that the strata of strong echo returns frequently revealed by remote-sensor records of the stably stratified planetary bound layer (PBL) represent the wavefronts of dissipative waves (viscous and thermal-conduction ...

Abstract: Severe tornadoes caused much damage in eastern Oklahoma on 5 December 1975. Although synoptic conditions were favorable for tornadoes, the storms in eastern Oklahoma ahead of a strong dryline had no appearance of being ...
