Slow to Understand: the Disciples in Synoptic Perspective
… trends, and the scope of the ongoing debate. A Synoptic approach to the motif of incomprehension is proposed because of the unsettled question of Marcan priority, the equality--if not at times more--disparaging portrayal of the disciples in the other Synoptics, and the need to explain the …

What Would Jesus Wear? Dress in the Synoptic Gospels
… and in order to understand passages in the synoptic gospels that use items of dress in the flow of their narrative, these garments must be examined in context. The first chapter of this dissertation outlines a methodology of dressed bodies that integrates bodily experience with social …

The synoptic drivers of extreme rainfall in South Africa
… at any given time is a direct function of the synoptic state of the atmosphere at that particular time. This thesis identifies synoptic states associated with extreme rainfall at a regional scale over South Africa and also investigates trends in extreme rainfall characteristics. Using 31 years …

Synoptic and Mesoscale Dynamics of Snowbands in Winter Cyclones
The key findings related to the narrow bands are: (1) The simulated embedded narrow bands were oriented vertically upright, their widths and evolution characteristics similar to radar observations; (2) Conditional symmetric instability did not contribute to the formation of the narrow bands, …

Statius' Silvan Poetics: A Synoptic Reading of the Silvae
The overwhelming majority of scholarly publications on Statius’ Silvae, a collection of relatively short poems from the first century AD, selectively approach specific themes or individual poems. As a consequence, the overall design of the collection has received at best marginal attention. This …

The characterisation of synoptic circulation patterns in Saldanha Bay
Saldanha Bay, on the west coast of South Africa, is the only deep water port between Cape Town and Walvis Bay. It is separated into two smaller bays, Small Bay and Big Bay, by an iron-ore jetty built in 1975. With its sheltered environment it is an ideal site for the development of a mariculture …

An evaluation of statistical synoptic models of rainfall in Spain
… research is to evaluate a range of statistical synoptic approaches with the aim of identifying the scheme that best models circulation to association. Spatial patterns of rainfall in Spain are first investigated using Principal Components Analysis and Cluster Analysis. Distinct precipitation …

SYNOPTIC PATTERNS ASSOCIATED WITH NORTHEAST AND South east ice Storms
… to utility services and disrupt travel. These synoptic systems involve deep isothermal regions where warm, moist air over-runs surface sub-freezing air. Much attention has been focused on Northeast ice storms, where a study by Cortinas et al. (2004) identified the Northeast as the region with …

Forced synoptic coastal-trapped waves along the southern African coastline
… that the large scale response of shelf waters to synoptic scale or "weather band" atmospheric forcing is predominantly barotropic. This permits the use of the linear, vertically integrated, shallow water wave equations on a J-plane to model the response of the West Coast shelf waters to "weather …

Relationship between synoptic scale meteorology, aircraft parameters, and observable contrails
Long-lasting or "persistent" contrails are line-shaped clouds that form when airplanes fly through cold and humid parts of the atmosphere that are ice-supersaturated. Various studies have shown that persistent contrails may be responsible for more than half of aviation’s radiative forcing [1]. …
