Rawinsonde Observations of Supercell-Environment Interactions
(2016-12)The Mesoscale Predictability Experiment (MPEX) in 2013 and Mini-MPEX in 2016 used mobile soundings to observe the near-storm environments of springtime Great Plains convection. Together, the projects collected over 100 ... -
Ray tracing of shear flow instability waves through a slightly inhomogeneous background flow /
(1985)In addition to ray tracing, this work explores the mixed spatial and temporal instability problem for a Falkner-Skan-like family of velocity profiles. An analog in the mixed spatial-temporal instability problem of a ... -
