RISAn Intense, Quasi-Steady Thunderstorm over Mountainous Terrain. Part I: Evolution of the Storm-Initiating Mesoscale Circulation
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: A detailed, multisensor case study of mesoscale convective storms occurring in summer over the central and eastern Colorado Rockies is presented. This case study uses data obtained during the 1977 South Park Area Cumulus ...
Multiparameter Radar Observations of Time Evolution of Convective Storms: Evaluation of Water Budgets and Latent Heating Rates
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: One advantage of dual-polarization radars is the ability to differentiate between water and ice phases in storms. The application of difference reflectivity (ZDP) in the analysis of mixed-phase precipitation is presented. ...
Evolution of a Florida Thunderstorm during the Convection and Precipitation/Electrification Experiment: The Case of 9 August 1991
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The relationships among kinematic, microphysical, and electric field properties within a multicell Florida thunderstorm are investigated using observations from three Doppler radars (one with multiple wavelength and ...
Ground-Based Passive Microwave Profiling during Dynamic Weather Conditions
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Short-period (1?5 min) temperature and humidity soundings up to 10-km height are retrieved from ground-based 12-channel microwave radiometer profiler (MWRP) observations. In contrast to radiosondes, the radiometric retrievals ...
