Vertically Pointing Airborne Doppler Radar Observations of Kelvin–Helmholtz BillowsSource: Monthly Weather Review:;2009:;volume( 138 ):;issue: 003::page 982DOI: 10.1175/2009MWR3212.1Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: A train of Kelvin?Helmholtz billows in a deep stratiform cloud over a mountain range is documented using data from a high-resolution vertically pointing airborne Doppler radar. The billows had a spacing of 2?2.5 km and a small aspect ratio. The formation and decay of the billows appear to be related to flow acceleration over a mountain.
