Storm Reflectivity and Mesocyclone Evolution Associated with the 15 April 1994 Squall Line over Kentucky and Southern Indiana
(American Meteorological Society, 1999)A long-lived highly organized squall line moved rapidly across the middle Mississippi and Ohio Valleys on 15 April 1994 within a moderately unstable, strongly sheared environment. Over Kentucky and southern Indiana, the ... -
Forecasting during the Lake-ICE/SNOWBANDS Field Experiments
(American Meteorological Society, 1999)Despite improvements in numerical weather prediction models, statistical models, forecast decision trees, and forecasting rules of thumb, human interpretation of meteorological information for a particular forecast situation ... -
Heavy Precipitation Events in New Jersey: Attendant Upper-Air Conditions
(American Meteorological Society, 1999)The first of an anticipated multipart study of atmospheric conditions occurring before and during heavy precipitation events in New Jersey, representative of the mid-Atlantic region, is presented. Upper-air data parameters ... -
On the Detection of Weather Systems over the Antarctic Interior in the FROST Analyses
(American Meteorological Society, 1999)The first Special Observing Period (SOP-1) of the Antarctic First Regional Observing Study of the Troposphere (FROST) was completed in July 1994 and provided a unique opportunity to assemble a comprehensive dataset for the ... -
On the Reanalysis of Southern Hemisphere Charts for the FROST Project
(American Meteorological Society, 1999)An overview is presented of the analysis procedures and problems encountered in the FROST reanalysis of weather charts poleward of latitude 50°S carried out in Hobart by the Australian Bureau of Meteorology, with advice ... -
A Summertime Antarctic Mesocyclone Event over the Southern Pacific during FROST SOP-3: A Mesoscale Analysis Using AVHRR, SSM/I, ERS, and Numerical Model Data
(American Meteorological Society, 1999)The development of three summertime mesoscale cyclones (MCs) over the northern Amundsen and Bellingshausen Seas from 10 to 12 January 1995 (during FROST SOP-3) is studied by means of AVHRR data, ERS and SSM/I retrievals, ... -
Southern Extratropical Cyclone Behavior in ECMWF Analyses during the FROST Special Observing Periods
(American Meteorological Society, 1999)The data collected during the three special observing periods (SOPs) of the Antarctic First Regional Observing Study of the Troposphere project provide an excellent base upon which to study the behavior of cyclonic systems ... -
Synoptic-Scale Weather Systems Observed during the FROST Project via Scatterometer Winds
(American Meteorological Society, 1999)Using data obtained during January 1995?the third of three special observing periods associated with the Antarctic First Regional Observing Study of the Troposphere project?over a sector of the Southern Ocean (SO), this ... -
An Assessment of the NCEP Operational Global Spectral Model Forecasts and Analyses for Antarctica during FROST
(American Meteorological Society, 1999)Analyses and medium-range numerical weather forecasts produced by the National Centers for Environmental Prediction are evaluated poleward of 50°S during the July 1994 special observing period of the Antarctic First Regional ... -
Surface Energy Balance of the NCEP MRF and NCEP–NCAR Reanalysis in Antarctic Latitudes during FROST
(American Meteorological Society, 1999)The surface energy budget in Antarctic latitudes is evaluated for the medium-range numerical weather forecasts produced by the National Centers for Environmental Prediction (NCEP) and for the NCEP?National Center for ... -
An Assessment of Operational Antarctic Analyses Based on Data from the FROST Project
(American Meteorological Society, 1999)The quality of the Antarctic operational analyses that were distributed over the Global Telecommunications System during the First Regional Observing Study of the Troposphere project special observing period of July 1994 ... -
Antarctic Meteorological Observations on the GTS during the FROST Project
(American Meteorological Society, 1999)An assessment is made of the availability of Antarctic synoptic observations on the World Meteorological Organization (WMO) Global Telecommunication System (GTS) during the trial periods (5?9 July 1993 and 1?15 February ... -

The Use of SSM/I Data in Operational Marine Analysis
(American Meteorological Society, 1999)The application of Special Sensor Microwave/Imager (SSM/I) multiparameter satellite retrievals in operational weather analysis and forecasting is addressed. More accurate multiparameter satellite retrievals are now available ... -
The Effect of Using Digital Satellite Imagery in the LAPS Moisture Analysis
(American Meteorological Society, 1999)The Local Analysis and Prediction System (LAPS) analyzes three-dimensional moisture as one component of its system. This paper describes the positive impact that simple 8-bit, remapped, routinely available imagery have on ... -
Cold Front Acceleration over Lake Michigan
(American Meteorological Society, 1999)High-resolution Eta Model simulations of a strong but relatively dry late winter surface cold front that occurred during the STORM-FEST project depicted a pronounced acceleration of the front during the afternoon hours ... -
Surface Winds and Development of Thunderstorms along Southwest–Northeast Oriented Mountain Chains
(American Meteorological Society, 1999)Northern Switzerland is characterized by a plateau (Swiss Mittelland) between two parallel southwest?northeast-running mountain chains: the Alps to the southeast of the plateau and the Jura to its northwest. Under the same ... -
Tubing: An Alternative to Clustering for the Classification of Ensemble Forecasts
(American Meteorological Society, 1999)Tubing is a method of classification of meteorological forecasts. The method has been designed to facilitate a human interpretation of the distribution of forecasts produced by an ensemble prediction system (EPS). This ...
