Analysis Of A Parallel Stratiform Mesoscale Convective System During The Midlatitude Continental Convective Clouds Experiment
<p>During the Midlatitude Continental Convective Clouds Experiment, a PS MCS traversed north-central Oklahoma on 11 May 2011. In-situ measurements of the stratiform precipitation region were obtained from six horizontal flight legs flow by the University of North Dakota Citation II Weather Research …

A Temporal Examination of the Connections between Convective Available Potential Energy and Convective System Development
… development of mesoscale convection – notably, convective systems (CS) – is also largely dependent on parameters like convective available potential energy (CAPE) which the ISCCP CT Database does not record. By tying information on CAPE to CS, discoveries in convective development have been …

The convective desalination of sea ice
… the salt content of sea ice decreases, namely convective desalination, which is also often called gravity drainage by geophysicists. Modelling convective desalination requires an understanding not only of the thermo-dynamics of sea-ice growth but also of its internal fluid dynamics. This thesis …

Mesoscale convective complexes over southern Africa
A combination of numerous factors, including geographic position, regional orography and local sea surface temperatures, ensures that subtropical southern Africa experiences considerable spatial and temporal variability in rainfall and is prone to both frequent flooding and drought events.

Evaporative Controls on Convective Adjustment: A Satellite-Based Assessment of Convective Available Energy (CAPE) During Surface Drydowns
… interactions between the land and atmosphere. In convective atmospheres, convective available potential energy (CAPE) drives convective adjustment and can lead to precipitation. We study the evolution of CAPE during drydowns, interstorm periods over which evapotranspiration occurs, to understand …

The Madden-Julian Oscillation and Convective Aggregation
… resolution. In a separate phenomenon, known as convective aggregation, convection in `cloud-resolving' numerical models is sometimes observed to spontaneously transition from homogeneous conditions to a single persistent precipitating region balanced by dry descent in the remainder of the …

Convective heat transfer in rotating, circular channels
Nusselt number values for flow in a rotating reference frame are obtained through computational fluid dynamic (CFD) analysis for Rossby numbers Ro ~1-4 and Reynolds numbers Re ~1,000-2,000. The heat-transfer model is first validated according to Nusselt number correlations for laminar, developing …
