Observations of Lightning in Convective Supercells within Tropical Storms and Hurricanes
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Cloud-to-ground (CG) lightning observations from land-based lightning detection networks now allow monitoring this component of the electrical structure of tropical storms and hurricanes within a few hundred kilometers of ...
Lake/Land Breeze Circulations on the Western Shore of Lake Michigan
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: A classic lake breeze circulation cell that formed on the western shore of Lake Michigan on 4 September 1974 is studied in great detail. Wind measurements are made with surface anemometers and serial pibals, with air ...
The Impact of Mesoscale Convective Systems on Regional Visibility and Oxidant Distributions during Persistent Elevated Pollution Episodes
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: It is generally accepted that atmospheric pollutants can be transported over distances described as synoptic in scale. However, the redistribution and removal of the various pollutant species may be significantly influenced, ...
Air Pollution Transport Studies in a Coastal Zone Using Kinematic Diagnostic Analysis
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Data from a mesoscale wind analysis of a vigorous lake/land breeze circulation on 4 September 1974 along the western shoreline of Lake Michigan are available. A computer program takes subjectively analyzed observed and ...
Mesoscale Spiral Vortex Embedded within a Lake Michigan Snow Squall Band: High Resolution Satellite Observations and Numerical Model Simulations
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: It is known that Great Lakes snow squall convection occurs in a variety of different modes on various factors such as air-water temperature contrast, boundary layer wind shear and geostrophic wind direction. An exceptional ...
