The Genesis and Evolution of African Easterly Waves
… thermal structure of the unstable wave. It has a thermally indirect secondary circulation centering at about 550 mb and a thermally direct circulation centering at about 850 mb. The effect of the self-induced latent heating strongly depends upon the particular baroclinic structure. The growth …

Numerical Studies of Synoptic and Mesoscale Environments Conducive to Heavy Rainfall in Tropical and Extratropical Systems
… MM5 simulations for both events revealed coupled thermally direct and thermally indirect circulations over the low-level confluence zone with their rising branches coupled over the zone, proving the hypothesis. Simulations of Floyd's extratropical transition showed a link existed between Floyd and …

Mult-Scale Jet/Front Interactions that Organize Typical Cloud Seeding Environments in the Sierra Nevada
Jet/Front systems that propagate every winter season across the Pacific Ocean basin create a favorable environment for supercooled cloud water above the complex terrain over the Central Sierra Nevada Mountains. This environment favors cloud seeding which can enhance the local orographic …
