Description
A study of ozone chemistry and meteorological processes occurring in the eastern North Pacific stratocumulus regime. This climatological regime is characterized by widespread, persistent low cloud and an air history that does not include contact with continents for many days. Since both ozone and important in the earth-atmosphere energy balance, the processes studied here are important in the system interactions that govern climate.

Description
Recent observational studies of upper-tropospheric and lower-stratospheric winds atop mesoscale convective systems show the development of anticyclonic outflow....As the magnitude of the anticyclone increases, the inertial stability of the system is reduced, resulting in a decreased partitioning of the initial available potential energy to the balanced state of the system.

Description
The major storm through the Midwest during the period 26 January to 28 January, 1967 was investigated to determine the cause of the narrow belt of exceedingly heavy snowfall, and to illustrate the relationship between the broad scale air motion and the synoptic and mesoscale precipitation pattern.

Description
During the evening hours of 31 July 1976 heavy precipitation fell along the Colorado Front Range resulting in flash flooding in the Big Thompson Canyon causing the death of 139 people with 35.5 million dollar damage. This report utilizes GOES-1 infrared (IR) imagery to estimate the heavy convective precipitation during the Big Thompson Flood.

Description
Evidence has accumulated over the last twenty years that in some clouds the concentration of ice crystals may be a factor of four or five orders of magnitude greater than the concentration of observed ice nuclei apparently available to the cloud.

Description
A dust and deposition module has been added to the CSU Regional Atmospheric Modeling System (RAMS). The new scheme utilizes a global map of potential sources and parameterizes emissions based on model wind speed and soil moisture. This study focuses on the testing of the new scheme, with emphasis on its ability to accurately model the spatial extent of dust as well as the column optical thickness and surface visibility.
