Dynamics of cloud-top generating cells in winter cyclones
… suggest that cloud-top precipitation generating cells (GCs) are ubiquitous in the warm-frontal and comma-head regions of midlatitude winter cyclones. The presence of fall streaks emanating from the GCs, and their persistence either to the surface or until merging into precipitation …

A kinematic modeling study of the re-organization of snowfall between cloud top generating cells and low-level snowbands in midlatitude winter storms
Submission original under an indefinite embargo labeled 'Open Access'. The submission was exported from vireo on 2024-03-01 without embargo terms

Structure and statistical analysis of the microphysical properties of the comma-head region of cold-season midlatitude cyclones
… describe the characteristics both of convective generating cells at cloud top, and regions of stratiform cloud further below, in which convectively-generated fall streaks of hydrometeors were embedded. Measurements were obtained within convective generating cells occurring at cloud top in 11 …

Analysis of vertical velocities and elevated instability in the comma-head of continental winter cyclones
… physical structure of elevated convection and generating cells within the comma heads of three continental winter cyclones are investigated using the Wyoming W-band Cloud Radar mounted on the NSF/NCAR C-130, supplemented by analyses from the Rapid Update Cycle model and WSR-88D data. The …

Microphysical Mechanisms in Stratiform Precipitation as Observed in OLYMPEX
… measured cloud LWC as high as 0.45 g m-3 within generating cells embedded in the stratiform echo on this day. Within the generating cells, a negative correlation of reflectivity and differential reflectivity was observed, similar to findings of Kumjian et al. (2014), who hypothesized that the …

Enhancing the Performance of Skeletal Muscle Powered Biohybrid Robots
… of skeletal muscle have been precluded by force-generating cells delaminating from their underlying substrate. Building on previous work from our lab demonstrating a method to culture contractile skeletal muscle in 2D formats, this work aims to enhance the performance of these systems by tuning …

Precipitation growth processes in the comma head region of an east coast winter storm
… west side of the cross-section and a region of generating cells at cloud top on the east side. In the stratiform region, precipitation primarily formed near cloud top as polycrystalline crystals. As the P-3 descended through the cloud layer, measurements were consistent with an overall increase …

A dynamical model of the distributed interaction of intracellular signals
… satisfactory explanation exists to explain why cells exhibit only a relatively small number of different behavioral modes. In this thesis, a discrete dynamical model is developed to study interactions between certain types of signaling proteins. The model is generic and "connectionist" in nature …

Characterization of the Dynamic Mechanical Properties of Single Cardiovascular Cells
… tissues, the mechanical behavior of the force generating cells, including vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMCs) in arteries and cardiac myocytes in the heart, must be considered. Cellular microbiaxial stretching (CμBS) is used to measure and characterize the anisotropic mechanics of cells with …

The effect of a shallow low viscosity zone on mantle convection and its expression at the surface of the earth
… adjacent to the fracture zone on the older side, generating cells on either side of the plume. The time scale and characteristic wavelength of this flow depends initially on the viscosity near the largest temperature gradient in the fluid which, in our model, is the viscosity of the low viscosity …
