Abstract: The Eulerian form of the Eliassen-Palm flux for quasi-geostrophic motion is generalized to include large-scale eddy forcing of condensation heating. Only the vertical component of the flux has to be modified; it is increased. ...

Abstract: A diagnostic study of the forcing of the Ferret cell by eddy fluxes in the Northern Hemisphere is carried out. The quasi-geostrophic omega equation, and Oort and Rasmusson's data set are used. The effects of condensation ...

Abstract: A two-dimensional semi-geostrophic model in isentropic coordinates is applied to the study of internal frontogenesis induced by a geostrophic deformation field. A continuous potential vorticity distribution is considered ...
