Description
It is shown that a general class of nonlinear partial differential equations -- including those frequently used in predicting atmospheric motions -- can be converted to computational form by either the "finite difference" or "spectral" method to yield formally identical equations.

Description
Wind profiler data collected during FIRE-II, in November 1991, provided an opportunity for detailed observation of the passage of a warm front over Parsons, KS. Surface data, rawinsonde data and satellite observations were used to collaborate and understand the phenomena detected by the wind profiler.

Description
The present study is designed to provide both a method whereby the details of the nonlinear exchange process which occurs in the atmosphere may be considered in a simplified form, and also to indicate from some calculations the complexity of those exchanges.

Description
In this study, the RAMS@CSU cloud-resolving mesoscale forecast model is run in a real-time configuration with a sophisticated microphysical package and multiple nested grids, in which the smallest grid has increased vertical resolution in the lower boundary layer. Using this configuration, two specific fog events are simulated in 3-D using initialization data with a horizontal resolution of 40 km.

Description
A generalization of the two-dimensional spectral forecast equations is suggested, whereby the atmospheric flow field in horizontal and vertical directions is represented in terms of orthogonal functions, which are eigenfunctions of certain differential operators in the three-dimensional equations. The technique is applied to the quasi-geostrophic potential vorticity equation.

Description
Qunatative [sic] radiance measurements from NASA's ATS-3 geosynchronous satellite have been used to develop and test a statistical forecast method to predict air terminal weather over the very short range (0-6 hours) time period.

Description
In The Weather Machine, Andrew Blum takes readers on a journey to understand how the weather forecast works. He visits old weather stations and watches new satellites blast off. He follows the dogged efforts of scientists to create a supercomputer model of the atmosphere and traces the history of the algorithms that power their work. Our tools allow us to predict weather more accurately than ever, yet we haven't learned to trust them. Nor can we...
