(Texas A&M University. Libraries, 1976)Synoptic-scale budgets of kinetic and total potential energy are computed using 3- and 6-h data at nine times from NASA's fourth Atmospheric Variability Experiment conducted on 24-25 April 1975. Two intense squall lines ...
-
(Texas A&M University. Libraries, 1981)A computational study is made of the variation of steady-state raindrop-size distributions (0.004 cm [less than or equal to] radius [less than or equal to] 0.40 cm) in adiabatic subcloud downdrafts of constant magnitude. ...
-
(Texas A&M University, 2008-10-10)A comparison of flash parameters from the National Lightning Detection Network (NLDN) is made with data obtained from the Houston Lightning Detection and Ranging II (LDAR) network. This research focuses on relating the ...

(Texas A&M University. Libraries, 1990)Regime behavior is investigated in a highly-truncated baroclinic spectral model with topography, frictional dissipation, and Newtonian cooling. Regimes are defined as the restriction of solution trajectories to isolated ...
-
(Texas A&M University. Libraries, 1964)Vortex motion was generated in a cylinder of 30-in. diameter and 8-in. depth. The cylinder, with a transparent lateral boundary and a glass window in the top, was equipped with a box attached to its base. Chemicals in this ...
-
(Texas A&M University. Libraries, 1966)A meteorological model for making short period wind-profile forecasts in the tropospheric and lower stratospheric regions has been formulated and extensively tested. A general purpose analog computer was used for the initial ...

-
(Texas A&M University. Libraries, 1966)This study is concerned with the theoretical description of upwelling and mixing induced in a stratified, rotating two-layer ocean by momentum transfer from an intense stationary, axially-symmetric atmospheric vortex. The ...
-
(Texas A&M University. Libraries, 1968)A numerical model is proposed for predicting the dispersion of SOâ‚‚ over Nashville, Tennessee, during the winter. The model includes the effects of three-dimensional advection, of diffusion, and of variations in the ...
-
(Texas A&M University. Libraries, 1982)The evolution of the thermal and dynamic structure of tornadoes is studied via numerical simulation. The model, which is axisymmetric, includes prognostic equations governing motion, a diagnostic pressure equation, and ...
-
(Texas A&M University. Libraries, 1976)A numerical model which gives improved vertical resolution in regions of interest by employing two different vertical coordinate systems is proposed for studying the development of intense baroclinic zones and fronts. In ...
-
(Texas A&M University. Libraries, 1983)The 14 years of daily and hourly data from three selected stations in Texas were used to determine if they could assist in predicting the Texas rice yields per planted hectare. Minimum temperature in the first stage and ...
-
(Texas A&M University. Libraries, 1989)A two-layer low-order spectral model on a d-plane channel with topographic, thermal and frictional forcing is designed as a compromise to resolve the relative importance and interaction of several relevant processes. The ...
-
(Texas A&M University. Libraries, 1981)Single-Doppler radar data, when supplemented by surface and upper-air information, provides good estimates of the intrastorm kinematic structure of supercell storms. Spatially derived fields of radial velocity, defined as ...
-
A probabilistic forecasting model of tropical cyclone-generated storm surge for a straight coastline (Texas A&M University. Libraries, 1984)A dynamic and statistical algorithm is constructed for a probabilistic forecasting of storm surge. The three essential constituents of this algorithm are: (1) an appropriate tropical cyclone model, (2) a justified and ...
-
(Texas A&M University. Libraries, 1961)The self-association of [beta]-lactoglobulin C at acid pH has been studied in glycine buffers and acetate buffers by sedimentation equilibrium. In glycine buffers, pH ca. .25, the self-association was studied by low and ...
-
(Texas A&M University. Libraries, 1976)A method is presented to retrieve single field of view (FOV) tropospheric temperature profiles directly from cloud-contaminated radiance data through use of auxiliary data such as observed shelter temperature and estimated ...
-
(Texas A&M University. Libraries, 1984)Moisture content of snow-free, unfrozen soil is inferred using passive microwave brightness temperatures from the Scanning Multichannel Microwave Radiometer (SMMR) on Nimbus-7. Investigation is restricted to the two ...
-
(Texas A&M University. Libraries, )The incidence of lightning discharge was estimated, the relationship of lightning-flash density to thunderstorm days was studied, and the causes of the variability in c loud-to -ground discharges were explored. The primary ...
