RISAn Examination of the Breakup of Marine Stratus: a Three-Dimensional Numerical Investigation
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Cloud top entrainment instability, as a mechanism for the breakup of marine stratus, is examined with a three-dimensional, planetary boundary layer (PBL) model. Specifically, we examine the criterion developed by Randall ...
The Relationship of Satellite Inferred Convective Activity to Easterly Waves Over West Africa and the Adjacent Ocean During Phase III of GATE
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: SMS-1 infrared brightness was estimated subjectively for each 1° square for the area from the equator to 20°N latitude and from 10°E to 30°W longitude for Phase III of GATE and the previous interphase period at 6 h intervals. ...
Structure and Properties of Synoptic-Scale Wave Disturbances in the Intertropical Convergence Zone of the Eastern Atlantic
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Data from a dense network of ship observations are used to study the structure and properties of westward-moving wave disturbances observed in the eastern Atlantic Intertropical Convergence Zone (ITCZ) during Phase III of ...
