“Dry Hole” in Venezuelan Mesoscale Cyclone
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: An unusual series of radar photographs was encountered in a major rainstorm in Venezuela in 1972. An elongated hole in the S-band radar presentation worked its way from the echo edge toward the center, then became an island ...
The Structure of the Marine Inversion in Northwest Oregon during 26–30 August 1973
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: As a part of the Second Coastal Upwelling Experiment along the Oregon Coast in summer 1973, extensive thermodynamic data were gathered in a mesoscale area. These data were examined in relation to the marine inversion at ...
Three Examples of Fair-Weather Mesoscale Boundary-Layer Convection in the Tropics
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Evidence indicates that fair-weather to towering cumulus clouds over the East Atlantic Ocean during GATE were frequently organized into mesoscale structures. Three examples of such structures are examined, using gust-probe ...
Evolution and Morphology of Two Splitting Thunderstorms with Dominant Left-Moving Members
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: During the late afternoon and early evening of 27 June 1989. Three splitting thunderstorms formed over Standing Rock Indian Reservation in the southern portion of the North Dakota Thunderstorm Project area. The first two ...
Mesoscale Motion Fields Associated with a Slowly Moving GATE Convective Band
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The structure of the convective band of 14 September in the dense GATE observing array is determined using wind and thermodynamic data primarily from multiple aircraft penetrations, which are well distributed in the vertical ...
Investigations of a Winter Mountain Storm in Utah. Part II: Mesoscale Structure, Supercooled Liquid Water Development, and Precipitation Processes
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: A comprehensive analysis of a deep winter storm system during its passage over the Tushar Mountains of southwestern Utah is reported. The case study, drawn from the 1985 Utah/NOAA cooperative weather modification experiment, ...
The North Dakota Thunderstorm Project: A Cooperative Study of High Plains Thunderstorms
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The North Dakota Thunderstorm Project was conducted in the Bismarck, North Dakota, area from 12 June through 22 July 1989. The project deployed Doppler radars, cloud physics aircraft, and supporting instrumentation to study ...
