Abstract: The thermodynamic structure of unsaturated downdrafts driven by the evaporation of falling rain can be parameterized using an evaporation pressure scale related to downdraft speed, rain rate and raindrop population. The ...

Abstract: A revised version Of Raymond's wave-CISK model is used to study the propagation of mesoscale modes. The sensitivity of unstable modes to variations in basic state stability and wind show (characteristics of the eastern ...
