The Air Weather Service Winter Trajectory Test Program
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The Winter Trajectory Test Program was conducted as part of the Air Weather Service Forecaster Assistance Program. The objective of this test was to determine if three-dimensional trajectories derived from the output of ...
Diagnostic Studies of Spiral Rainbands in a Nonlinear Hurricane Model
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Results from diagnostic studies of a nonlinear hurricane model support the conclusion that internal gravity-inertia waves are responsible for hurricane rainbands. The mean relative vorticity differed little between the ...
A Study of Spiral Bands in a Linear Model of a Cyclonic Vortex
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: This paper investigates the generation and propagation of spiral bands on an axisymmetric base-state vortex. A linear model is used to study the formation of bands from internal gravity-inertia waves in a barotropic ...
The Occurrence of Vertical Tilt in Tropical Cyclones
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Developing tropical cyclones are often observed with significant displacements between their surface and upper level circulation centers. The slope is in the direction of the convective cloud mass which also is displaced ...
An Analysis of Super Typhoon Tip (October 1979)
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Super Typhoon Tip was an eventful tropical cyclone which developed in the western North Pacific in early, October 1979. Besides establishing the world's record for the lowest minimum sea level pressure ever measured in a ...
