Abstract: The quasi-geostrophic omega equation is employed to perform a diagnostic case study of the baroclinic structure of a developing system. The model employs height data at ten pressure levels to obtain the vertical motion ...

Abstract: Three subjective and two objective analysis techniques were employed to prepare height data for a synoptic case over North America. These heights were used as input to a ten-level quasi-geostrophic model for computation ...

Abstract: As a part of the Second Coastal Upwelling Experiment along the Oregon Coast in summer 1973, extensive thermodynamic data were gathered in a mesoscale area. These data were examined in relation to the marine inversion at ...

Abstract: Temporal and spatial variations in the structure of the lower atmosphere off Oregon's central coast are studied. The response of the wind and thermal fields to a synoptic-scale realignment aloft that causes a rapid shift ...

Abstract: Results of tests for the optimum over-relaxation coefficients in the numerical relaxation of the omega equation are presented. One case considers a strong upper-level development for tests on a fixed grid using one-, two-, ...

Abstract: Coordinated meteorological and oceanographic (CTD) measurements were made near Point Conception, California, during March?April 1981. The goal of the observations was to study coastal upwelling and the local characteristics ...
