Title:A study of the development of extratropical cyclones with an analytic model. Part II: Sensitivity to tropospheric structure and analysis of height tendency dynamics
Publication:Mon. Wea. Rev., 122, 2312-2330
Abstract:An analytic quasigeostrophic model is used to examine the sensitivity of type B cyclogenesis to the vertical structure of the troposphere given a particular stratospheric temperature configuration. It is found that there is an optimal tropospheric configuration that produces the largest negative height tendency at the center of the 1000-mb model cyclone.

Publication:Q.J.R. Meteorol. Soc., 120, 519-555
Abstract:A two-dimensional non-hydrostatic cloud model is used to simulate a frontal system observed on 11 November 1987 during the FRONTS 87 experiment. The cloud resolving model is able to reproduce a large variety of frontal bands, starting from only the meso-alpha-scale fields produced by a hydrostatic forecast model.

In a previous paper, the authors showed that the PE and SG models can have significantly different versions of the large-scale dynamics - here they report on the implications of this difference for frontogenesis.

Abstract:The rapid surface cyclogenesis of March 1984 is examined from an observational and modeling perspective, in terms of both potential vorticity (PV) and traditional quasigeostrophic reasoning, during its evolution from a mesoscale cyclone to a state in which it is identifiable as a large-scale extratropical cyclone. The first stage of the cyclonic development is characterized by a surface warm anomaly forming as a consequence of surface heat fluxes.

Publication:MWR, 128, 3218-3235
Abstract:The Global Energy and Water Cycle Experiment has identified the poor representation of clouds in atmospheric general circulation models as one of the major impediments for the use of these models in reliably predicting future climate change.

Title:High-Resolution Observations of the Trowal–Warm-Frontal Region of Two Continental Winter Cyclones
Publication:Monthly Weather Review, 135, 1629-1646.
Abstract:This paper compares the structure of the trough of warm air aloft (trowal)–warm-frontal region of two continental wintertime cyclones. The cyclones were observed over the central Great Lakes region during the Lake-Induced Convection Experiment/Snowband Dynamics Project field campaign.
