Abstract: In this note the forcing of cumulus cloud clearing over and downwind from lakes during the warm season is evaluated conceptually by modeling and observational approaches. It is suggested that drying by dynamically induced ...

Abstract: The diversity of small lakes' (size <50 km) configurations, sizes, surrounding terrain, and land use combined with relative sparsity of observations complicates the observational evaluation of the lake breezes (LB) that ...

Abstract: The finescale structure and dynamics of cumulus, evolving from shallow to deep convection, and the accompanying changes in the environment and boundary layer over mountainous terrain were the subjects of a field campaign ...
