Abstract: A two-dimensional, hydrostatic, primitive-equation model is used to investigate the dynamics of frontogenesis in a moist atmosphere. The development of a cold front is simulated through shear-deformation associated with ...

Abstract: A two-dimensional, hydrostatic, nearly adiabatic primitive equation model is used to study the evolution of a front passing across topography. Frontogenesis is forced by shearing deformation associated with the nonlinear ...

Abstract: Multiple national-level reports encourage engineering faculty to help undergraduate engineers develop a basic level of leadership knowledge to enable leadership growth upon graduation. Recent engineering leadership literature ...

Abstract: A significant sign reversal in the meridional potential vorticity gradient was found during the summer of 1991 on the 310-K isentropic surface (near 700 mb) over the Caribbean Sea. The Charney?Stern necessary condition for ...

Abstract: A comparison between the climatological structure of retarded and unretarded fronts aligned parallel to the Appalachian Mountains is investigated. With the average height of the Appalachians being 1 km, retarded and ...

Abstract: This paper describes the construction and results of a comprehensive, three-dimensional general circulation model (GCM) of the earth's climate. The model, developed at the National Center for Atmospheric Research (NCAR), ...

Abstract: This paper examines the climatological, large-scale, and synoptic-scale aspects of South American cold surges using NCEP?NCAR gridded reanalyses for the 1992?96 period. Three common cold surge types are identified on the ...

Abstract: This report summarizes discussions that took place during a Unidata Cooperative Program for Operational Meteorology, Education, and Training (COMET) workshop on Mesoscale Meteorology Instruction in the Age of the Modernized ...
