Convective Instability Underneath Midlevel Clouds: Comparisons between Numerical Simulations and VHF Radar Observations
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: eep turbulent layers can sometimes be observed on the underside of clouds that extend above upper-level frontal zones. In a recent study based on 3D numerical simulations with idealized initial conditions, it was found ...
Turbulence Patch Identification in Potential Density or Temperature Profiles
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The Thorpe analysis is a recognized method used to identify and characterize turbulent regions within stably stratified fluids. By comparing an observed profile of potential temperature or potential density to a reference ...
An Improved High-Resolution Processing Method for a Frequency Domain Interferometric Imaging (FII) Technique
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Frequency hopping [also recently called range imaging (RIM) or frequency domain interferometric imaging (FII)] is a pulse compression technique used to improve the range resolution ?r of Doppler radars limited by their ...
MU Radar and Lidar Observations of Clear-Air Turbulence underneath Cirrus
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Turbulence generation mechanisms prevalent in the atmosphere are mainly shear instabilities, breaking of internal buoyancy waves, and convective instabilities such as thermal convection due to heating of the ground. In the ...
