Large-Scale Atmospheric Circulation Characteristics as Evident from Ghost Balloon Data
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: From GHOST balloon data obtained over the Southern Hemisphere at the 200-mb level, phase velocities of cyclone waves were found to vary between 6.3 and 9.2 degrees of longitude per day. Spectrum analysis of the relative ...
INTERACTION BETWEEN SUBTROPICAL AND POLAR-FRONT JET STREAM
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: By means of satellite photographs originally analyzed by Oliver et al., it is shown that the polar-front jet stream and the subtropical jet stream do not behave as entities in regions where they approach each other closely. ...
Estimating Refractive Index Spectra in Regions of Clear Air Turbulence
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Estimates of the spectrum of refractivity fluctuations to be expected in regions of clear turbulence are shown for scales in the inertial subrange. Based on the complete analysis by Atlas et al., it is concluded that radar ...
Mesoscale Structure of 11–20 km Winds
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Several time series of vertical wind velocity profiles obtained by tracking spherical superpressure balloons using l1?20 radars at Point Mugu, California and Cape Kennedy, Florida are analyzed. In the altitude range 11?20 ...
