Isentropic Analysis of Convective Motions
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: his paper analyzes the convective mass transport by sorting air parcels in terms of their equivalent potential temperature to determine an isentropic streamfunction. By averaging the vertical mass flux at a constant value ...
Isentropic Analysis of a Simulated Hurricane
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: urricanes, like many other atmospheric flows, are associated with turbulent motions over a wide range of scales. Here the authors adapt a new technique based on the isentropic analysis of convective motions to study the ...
Axisymmetric Hurricane in a Dry Atmosphere: Theoretical Framework and Numerical Experiments
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: his paper discusses the possible existence of hurricanes in an atmosphere without water vapor and analyzes the dynamic and thermodynamic structures of simulated hurricane-like storms in moist and dry environments. It is ...
Properties of a Mesoscale Convective System in the Context of an Isentropic Analysis
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: pplication of an isentropic analysis of convective motions to a simulated mesoscale convective system is presented. The approach discriminates the vertical mass transport in terms of equivalent potential temperature. The ...
A FIRE-ACE/SHEBA Case Study of Mixed-Phase Arctic Boundary Layer Clouds: Entrainment Rate Limitations on Rapid Primary Ice Nucleation Processes
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: bservations of long-lived mixed-phase Arctic boundary layer clouds on 7 May 1998 during the First International Satellite Cloud Climatology Project (ISCCP) Regional Experiment (FIRE)?Arctic Cloud Experiment (ACE)/Surface ...
