Abstract: Time-dependent flow solutions for steady supergradient pressure patterns are presented for a variety of initial flow configurations. These solutions discriminate initial conditions and pressure patterns that produce stable ...

Abstract: Observed perturbation kinetic and available energy are presented for a region about 3000 km on a side to study the horizontal homogeneity and general characteristics of geostrophic motions. Frequency spectral analysis is ...

Abstract: Precursory signals in sea surface temperature anomalies (SSTAs) associated with summer precipitation over the Southwest (SW) United States are examined using data from 1900 to 1996. Two patterns of SSTAs are found to ...
