Jet Streak Dynamics and Geostrophic Adjustment Processes during the Initial Stages of Lee Cyclogenesis
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: A numerical experiment is described which explores the relationship between upper-level potential vorticity advection and cyclogenesis on the leeward side of mountain barriers. A multilevel primitive equation model framed ...
The Use and Analysis of Profiler Winds to Derive Mesoscale Height and Temperature Fields: Simulation and Real-Data Experiments
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Conventional synoptic rawinsonde data do not have a fine enough temporal or spatial resolution to accurately resolve mesoscale features. Profiling networks are one potential source of these data although they provide only ...
A Retrospective Evaluation of the Storm Surge Produced by Hurricane Gustav (2008): Forecast and Hindcast Results
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The evolution and convergence of modeled storm surge were examined using a high-resolution implementation of the Advanced Circulation Coastal Ocean and Storm Surge (ADCIRC) model for Hurricane Gustav (2008). The storm surge ...
