A SYNTHESIS OF INTERPRETATIONS OF EXTRATROPICAL VORTEX PATTERNS AS SEEN BY TIROS
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: An attempt is made to integrate the existing knowledge, from some 28 published sources, with regard to the interpretation of satellite observed cloud vortex patterns. It is found that the model proposed by Boucher and ...
Radiative Generation of Eddy Available Potential Energyin Extratropical Cyclones
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Calculations for eight cyclonic storm situations give rates of infrared radiative generation of eddy availablepotential energy that, in these cases, were an order of magnitude less than the rates of frictional dissipation,and ...
A STUDY OF THE FLOW OF ANGULAR MOMENTUM IN THE ATMOSPHERE
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: A study is made of the flow of angular momentum in the atmosphere for the month of January 1946. The results generally confirm the pattern proposed by Starr on theoretical grounds. Angular momentum is transferred from the ...
