Abstract: When dissipation is present a forced planetary wave will interact with the zonal flow in the stratosphere and cause acceleration of the zonal wind, mean-zonal diabatic heating and net transport of trace chemicals. ...

Abstract: The transport of ozone and nitrous oxide by transient planetary wave in the stratosphere is studied on a midlatitude ?-plane with Newtonian cooling. The transport is found for chemically-inert traces when the mean-zonal ...

Abstract: The spatial variability of total ozone at high latitudes in winter is explained by the vertical structure of planetary-scale waves. The location of the maximum in total ozone is governed by the phase shift with height of ...

Abstract: The vertical distribution of ozone at the equator was studied by means of a diurnal integration of the photochemical equations with the sum of the nitrogen oxides specified as a function of height and ozone assumed to be ...

Abstract: A commercial Doppler sodar was operated near a 300-m tower instrumented with bivanes and cup anemometers. Sodar measurements of wind speed and direction and a turbulence variable (σw) were compared with tower measurements ...

Abstract: Chemical transport at the Savannah River Site (SRS) in South Carolina during nocturnal sea-breeze passage is examined using simulations from a three-dimensional mesoscale dynamic model [(RAMS) Regional Atmospheric Modeling ...

Abstract: Characteristics of inland-penetrating nocturnal sea breezes at the Savannah River Site (SRS) in South Carolina are discussed. Detailed observations from an area tower network during the Stable Boundary Layer Experiment ...

Abstract: aboratory experiments have demonstrated a correlation between the rate of heat loss q? from an experimental fluid to the air above and the standard deviation σ of the thermal variability in images of the fluid surface. ...
