Abstract: Simple theoretical models of evaporation and sensitive high-resolution Doppler radars are used to study the precipitation and velocity structures resulting from evaporation at the base of layers of ice particles. The models ...

Abstract: The potential for single-Doppler radar determination of wind field characteristics in cyclonic flow is examined. The influence of the four independent first-order derivatives of a wind field, namely curvature, diffluence, ...

Abstract: A kinematic mesocyclone model is developed to better approximate mesocyclone flows observed by single-Doppler radar. The model is described by two general flow regimes: an inner core region where velocity varies directly ...
