Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Two sources of kona-storm development in the eastern Pacific are studied, together with factors leading to storm intensification. Vertical structure of this subtropical cyclone is considered in terms of sounding data from ...
On The Computation of Equivalent Potential Temperature
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The computation of ?E, the pseudo-quivalent potential temperature, ordinarily omits the contribution due to specific heats of water vapor. This may he an acceptable practice for temperate-latitude usages but a questionable ...
Stepping Stones in the Evolution of a National Hurricane Policy

LIQUID WATER IN SQUALL LINES AND HURRICANES AT AIR TEMPERATURES LOWER THAN −40° C.
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: In convective clouds jet aircraft encounter icing at air temperatures lower than ?60° C. It may be reasoned that this results from (1) the melting of frozen droplets due to dynamic or frictional heating in the quasi-potential ...
