A SIMPLE THREE-DIMENSIONAL MODEL FOR THE STUDY OF LARGE-SCALE EXTRATROPICAL FLOW PATTERNS
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: A study is made of the hydrostatic and quasi-geostrophic motion of two superimposed layers of homogeneous and incompressible fluids of different densities, these fluids being contained between two rigid, horizontal plates. ...
THE WORK DONE ON THE SURROUNDING ATMOSPHERE BY SUBSIDING COLD AIR MASSES
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The flux of energy due to the pressure force acting across the boundary of a subsiding mass of cold air is investigated. It is shown that for mean values of the subsiding motion of the order of ?1 cm sec?1 or larger, energy ...
