High-Resolution Observations with MU Radar of a KH Instability Triggered by an Inertia–Gravity Wave in the Upper Part of a Jet Stream
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Kelvin?Helmholtz (KH) instability is likely one of the most important sources of clear-air turbulence in the lower atmosphere. It produces billows, which mix and transport heat and materials vertically in the stably ...
Longitudinally Dependent Ozone Increase in the Antarctic Polar Vortex Revealed by Balloon and Satellite Observations
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The horizontal structure of processes causing increases in ozone in the Antarctic polar vortex was examined using data measured in 2003 from an ozonesonde observation campaign at Syowa Station (39.6°E, 69.0°S) and from the ...
The EarthCARE Satellite: The Next Step Forward in Global Measurements of Clouds, Aerosols, Precipitation, and Radiation
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: he collective representation within global models of aerosol, cloud, precipitation, and their radiative properties remains unsatisfactory. They constitute the largest source of uncertainty in predictions of climatic change ...
