Characterizing how these winds vary with height is necessary for understanding how winds observed aloft map to near-surface, surface-, and structure-level winds. The Doppler on Wheels (DOWs)12,15 mobile radars have collected data in over 250 tornadoes spanning over three decades, and a broad ra...
Aerial locomotion at small scales is very changeling and insects utilize a variety of unsteady aerodynamic mechanisms to generate the necessary forces to not only stay aloft but also perform coordinated maneuvers. In the natural environment volant organisms are also posed with wind unsteadiness. What ...
Before computers, internet, and remote terminals, pilots would telephone a Flight Service Station to receive winds and temperatures aloft. The briefer would read the data for each station along the route of flight. The pilot calculated headings and ground speeds by hand. [Narrator: “It was not...
Schultz and Sienkiewicz [19] claimed that frontolysis, and the resulting secondary circulation, must be strong enough and last long enough to advect strong winds aloft down to the lower troposphere. Other studies argued that CSI may enhance this frontal circulation, producing more rapid descent and...

Above the atmospheric boundary layer, the correlation between currents and winds falls to insignificant values. The wind response is attenuated with height, consistent with a feedback effect acting at the air-sea interface and diffused aloft by vertical mixing24. This tidal-frequency wind is ...
At sight of the Countess the ex-horseman dropped his brush and thrust his hands aloft, exclaiming, "Don't shoot, ma'am!" His grin was friendly; there was no rancor112 in his voice. "How you gettin' along down at your house?" he inquired. "Very well," the Countess told him. "We...
