The Garden City, Kansas, Storm during VORTEX 95. Part II: The Wall Cloud and Tornado
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: On 16 May 1995, a supercell storm produced an F1 tornado near Garden City, Kansas, during VORTEX (Verification of the Origins of Rotation in Tornadoes Experiment). This event provided the first opportunity to synthesize ...
The Frontal Structure of an Explosive Oceanic Cyclone: Airbone Radar Observations of ERICA IOP 4
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Observation taken during the Experiment on Rapidly Intensifying Cyclones over the Atlantic (ERICA) have permitted analyses of explosive oceanic cyclogenesis of unprecedented detail. The most intense of the cyclones that ...
The Garden City, Kansas, Storm during VORTEX 95. Part I: Overview of the Storm’s Life Cycle and Mesocyclogenesis
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Analysis of a supercell storm that produced an F1 tornado near Garden City, Kansas, is presented. This event provided one of the first opportunities to synthesize data collected by a new airborne radar platform called ...
A New Frontal Instability: Theory and ERICA Observations
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: A short-wave instability theory is applied to secondary waves on a narrow cold-front rainband observed during the Experiment on Rapidly Intensifying Cyclones over the Atlantic (ERICA). The basic mean state is approximated ...
Observations of Mesoscale Circulations within Extratropical Cyclones over the North Atlantic Ocean during ERICA
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Pseudo-dual-Doppler analyses of two mesoscale circulations (20?40 km in horizontal dimensions) that formed along a warm front within a rapidly deepening extratropical cyclone over the ocean are presented. The circulations ...
Convection and Rapid Filamentation in Typhoon Sinlaku during TCS-08/T-PARC
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: his study examines the convection and rapid filamentation in Typhoon Sinlaku (2008) using the Naval Research Laboratory (NRL) P-3 aircraft data collected during the Tropical Cyclone Structure 2008 (TCS-08) and The Observing ...
Annual Cycle of Southeast Asia—Maritime Continent Rainfall and the Asymmetric Monsoon Transition
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: In general, the Bay of Bengal, Indochina Peninsula, and Philippines are in the Asian summer monsoon regime while the Maritime Continent experiences a wet monsoon during boreal winter and a dry season during boreal summer. ...
ELDORA Observations during VORTEX 95
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Airborne radar platforms have played an increasingly important role in advancing our understanding of storms that are either too remote or occur too infrequently for ground-based radars. Recognizing this potential, the ...
Quality-Controlled Upper-Air Sounding Dataset for TiMREX/SoWMEX: Development and Corrections
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: During the Terrain-Influenced Monsoon Rainfall Experiment (TiMREX), which coincided with Taiwan?s Southwesterly Monsoon Experiment?2008 (SoWMEX-08), the upper-air sounding network over the Taiwan region was enhanced by ...
