Front, in meteorology, interface or transition zone between two air masses of different density and temperature; the sporadic flareups of weather along this zone, with occasional thunderstorms and electrical activity, was, to the Norwegian meteorologists
Intense winter storms are frequently the cause of long-lasting windstorms. Such winter low-pressure systems have large horizontal pressure differences and are always accompanied by strong jet-stream winds aloft. In the northeasternUnited States, windstorms that occur as particularly strong low-pressure ...
Gust Front: The leading edge of rain-cooled air with warm air flowing into a thunderstorm (simply named inflow). It is often characterized by a wind shift, temperature drop, and gusty winds ahead of a thunderstorm. Derecho: A widespread, long-lived band of quickly moving thunderstorms characte...
During episodes of dense haze, as occurred most recently in January of 2017 over north China, penetration of sunlight to the surface is inhibited while significant radiation is absorbed by aerosols aloft. The net effect is an increase in temperature at altitude compensated by a decrease at the ...
group quickly raised the sails while being dragged head to wind. Within moments our tow line was untied and we were sailing. The wind was strong, and it was cold. The day was beautiful on land, but I had not dressed properly for the temperature on the lake and I was cold within ...
LI, CAPE, and CIN are all surface-based values. The height of the lifting condensation level (LCL) is given in the bottom-right of the panel. K, TT, and LI are environmental stability indices. The K index is a measure of thunderstorm potential based on the temperature lapse rate, ...
Thus, temperature increases with height. Inversions may also occur at any altitude when conditions are favorable. For example, a current of warm air aloft overrunning cold air near the surface produces an inversion aloft. Inversions are common in the stratosphere. ...
This slackening is related to the temperature structure of the storm. Air is warmer in the core of a tropical cyclone, and this higher temperature causes atmospheric pressure in the centre to decrease at a slower rate with height than occurs in the surrounding atmosphere. The lessened contrast ...
The algebraic surface heat budget equation and an one dimensional heat conduction equation are solved to obtain the surface temperature over land and the soil temperature. In the frame of the APSIS exercise A the model MEMO was used to simulate the mesoscale flow in the Athens basin on May 25...
