RISClimatology of Upper-Level Turbulence over the Contiguous United States
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Climatologies of the regional, seasonal, and temporal distributions of upper-level (18 000?60 000-ft MSL) turbulence over the contiguous United States (CONUS) are constructed using pilot reports (PIREPs) of aircraft ...
Wind-Driven Flow over Topography in a Zonal β-Plane Channel: A Quasi-geostrophic Model of the Antarctic Circumpolar Current
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The paper gives a detailed account of the dynamical balance of a wind-driven zonally unbounded flow over topography. The problem is investigated with a quasi-geostrophic ?-plane channel with two layers and eddy resolution. ...
An Integrated Approach to Mid- and Upper-Level Turbulence Forecasting
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: An automated procedure for forecasting mid- and upper-level turbulence that affects aircraft is described. This procedure, termed the Graphical Turbulence Guidance system, uses output from numerical weather prediction model ...
