  • Air-sea heat exchange along the northern sea surface temperature front in the eastern tropical Pacific

    Creator:
    Thum, Nicolai
    Abstract:
    The atmospheric response to the oceanic forcing in the eastern Pacific along the northern equatorial sea surface temperature (SST) front is investigated in terms of sensible and latent heat flux during the 6-month period 28 July 1999 through 27 January 2000. Of particular interest is the atmospheric boundary layer (ABL)...

  • A modeling study of katabatic flows

    Creator:
    Smith, Craig M.
    Abstract:
    A modeling study is undertaken to better understand the physics of katabatic flows. This study is divided into three topics; a comparison between a large eddy simulation (LES) and a mesoscale model of katabatic flows, a sensitivity study of katabatic flows to various physical parameters, and an investigation into the...
