Abstract: A vortex simulator is used to study multiple vortices with particular interest on the role of surface friction in their formation. Measurements with a hot-film anemometer show that the maximum velocity in a multiple-vortex ...

Abstract: The Purdue Regional Objective Analysis of the Mesoscale (PROAM) is a successive correction type scheme for the analysis of surface meteorological data. The scheme is subjected to a series of experiments to evaluate its ...
