Title:Implications of the hydrostatic assumption on atmospheric gravity waves
Publication:J. Atmos. Sci., 51, 1915-1929
Abstract:The validity of the hydrostatic approximation is examined for use in predicting the dynamics of topographically generated atmospheric gravity waves (lee waves) propagating in an atmosphere with realistic wind shear. To isolate nonhydrostic effects, linear, analytic solutions derived both with and without the hydrostatic assumption

Publication:Mon. Wea. Rev., 122, 2506-2529
Abstract:A two-dimensional, nonhydrostatic, elastic numerical model has been used to study the generation of gravity waves for a stably stratified shear flow over an obstacle. When a low-level wind shear is included in the simulation, we find that the predictions for noticeable upstream effects based on Froude number for a uniform flow are no longer accurate.

Title:The impact of land-surface wetness heterogeneity on mesoscale heat fluxes.
Publication:J. Appl. Met., 33, 1323-1340
Abstract:Vertical heat fluxes associated with mesoscale circulations generated by land-surface wetness discontinuities are often stronger than turbulent fluxes, especially in the upper part of the atmospheric planetary boundary layer. As a result, they contribute significantly to the subgrid-scale fluxes in large-scale atmospheric models.

Abstract:Two mechanisms are proposed whereby internal gravity waves (IGW) may radiate from a linearly unstable region of Bou7ssinesq parallel flow that is characterized in the far field by constant horizontal velocity and Brunt-Vaisala frequency. Through what is herin referred to as 'primary generation', IGW may be directly excited by linear instability of the initail-state parallel shear flow.

Comparisons between idealized simulations of Antarctica with MM4 and with the mesoscale model of Parish and Waight reveal that both models produce similarly realistic velocity fields in the boundary layer.

Abstract:A numerical modeling study of the Catalina Eddy was performed to investigate the causes of this occasional vortex over the Bight of California. The eddy was successfully simulated by imposing over the mesoscale domain a strong northwesterly flow resembling one that was associated with a June 1988 occurrence. In the simulation, a low pressure center forms in the lee of the San Rafael Mountains, that is, over the northern bight.

Single- and multi-Doppler radar analyses combined with serial balloon ascents suggest that the denser sea-breeze flow undercut the cold pool behind the gust front and may have generated a westward-propagating undular bore.

Abstract:This study investigates the evolution of a mesoscale convective system that formed during the Taiwan Area Mesoscale Experiment (TAMEX) on the 19 June 1987. With respect to the upstream flow, the convective system formed in the lee with rainfall totals from this system exceeding 100mm. Any event that produces over 100 mm of rain in 24 h is thought to be capable of producing flooding over the steep orography of Taiwan.

Blockage of the trade wind combined with diurnal, thermally driven circulations, leads to a general flow stagnation along the windward slopes and to a reversal of flow at night.

Publication:J. Atmos. Sci., 57, 595-598
Abstract:Recently, Browning and Kreiss (1997) developed that proves that there are two main compoents of the soultion of the forced dynamical system that describes a mesoscale strom driven by cooling and heating processes. The component that contains most of the energy of the solution (and is therefore called the dominant component) satisfies a simple nonlinear system devoid of gravity and sound waves.

Publication:J. Atmos. Sci., 57, 715-736
Abstract:The problem of weakly stratified, weakly sheared flow over (or under) obstacles is solved approximately by using a Lagrangian approach that obtains solutions on isentropic or Bernoulli surfaces and hence reveals the vortex lines immediately.

Publication:J. Atmos. Sci., 63, 3421-3436.
Abstract:Results are presented from a high-resolution three-dimensional simulation of shallow-to-deep convection transition based on idealization of observations made during the Large-Scale Biosphere–Atmosphere (LBA) experiment in Amazonia, Brazil, during the Tropical Rainfall Measuring Mission (TRMM)-LBA mission on 23 February.

Title:Simulated Convective Lines with Parallel Stratiform Precipitation. Part I: An Archetype for Convection in Along-Line Shear
Publication:Journal of the Atmospheric Sciences, 64, 267-288.
Abstract:This article, the first of two describing convective lines with parallel stratiform (PS) precipitation, addresses the basic kinematic and precipitation features of these systems.

Title:Simulated Convective Lines with Parallel Stratiform Precipitation. Part II: Governing Dynamics and Associated Sensitivities
Publication:Journal of the Atmospheric Sciences, 64, 289-312.
Abstract:This article is the second of two describing convective lines with parallel stratiform (PS) precipitation. The PS mode appears to be the preferred organizational structure in environments with line-parallel vertical wind shear.
