Abstract: During the past several years, the Global Energy and Water Cycle Experiment (GEWEX) continental-scale experiments (CSEs) have started to develop regional hydroclimatological datasets and water and energy budget studies ...

Abstract: Frontal precipitation systems are simulated with a 2D cloud model including ice-phase microphysics. Despite the use of idealized frontogenetic forcing in the simulations, some observed characteristics of frontal zones and ...

Abstract: In the summer of 1950, the authors joined the staff of the Pacific Naval Laboratory (PNL) of the Defense Research Board of Canada. A research program was undertaken to see if the turbulent wake of a submarine could be ...

Abstract: The S-band occultation experiments have provided important observational data on the structure of the atmospheres of Mars and Venus. The results for Mars show a very cold region in the middle atmosphere where CO2, the main ...

Abstract: The field phase of the Canadian Atlantic Storms Program (CASP) was conducted from 15 January to 15 March 1986. The principal objective of the meteorological component of the program was to begin the process of improving ...

Abstract: Further support to Kolmogoroff's theory of local isotropy is provided by hot-wire measurements of fluctuations of downwind velocities at a height of 1 to 2 m above the sea surface. The results agree with those obtained ...

Abstract: The evolution of raindrop spectra by collisional breakup is examined analytically and modelled in box and 1-dimensional shaft models, using the parameterization of Low and List. The significant analytical result shows that ...

Abstract: On 22 February 1986 Nova Scotia experienced heavy precipitation in the form of snow, freezing precipitation, and rain from a storm having a central pressure no lower than 99.3 kPa. Using observations obtained during the ...

Abstract: The present study discusses the meso- and microscale structures of Precipitation regions within a midlatitude winter storm over the North Atlantic, observed during the Experiment on Rapidly Intensifying Cyclones over the ...
