Central Australian Cold Fronts

Monthly Weather Review, 1995
Abstract This paper presents an observational study of the structure and behavior of cold fronts over central Australia during the late dry season, a time of year when the prefrontal convectively well-mixed layer is particularly deep. The study is based on the results of the Central Australian Fronts Experiments (CAFE) held in 1991.

Precipitation growth at a cold front

Quarterly Journal of the Royal Meteorological Society, 1973
AbstractA simple model of the growth of precipitation particles in cloud systems in which the air flow is known has been used to calculate the growth of hail pellets at a cold front. The calculated pellet sizes and densities, and surface rainfall rates, are consistent with observations.

Rationalizing the cold war home front

IEEE Technology and Society Magazine, 2008
This paper deals with the impact of radioactive fallout of atmospheric testing in Nevada test site. The U.S. Atomic Energy Commission (AEC), sent representatives to areas potentially affected by fallout to instruct and reassure the affected public. These are the radiation monitors. However, the discourse used by these radiation monitors miscommunicated

An Instability of Mature Cold Fronts

Journal of the Atmospheric Sciences, 1990
Abstract An instability of a cold front possessing a low-level warm-band precursor is examined within an f-plane, quasi- and semigeostrophic framework. The basic frontal state is taken to be two-dimensional and of uniform potential vorticity. Theoretical considerations pinpoint the source and nature of the instability to be a vortex interaction effect ...

The Variability of Cold Front Precipitation

Bulletin of the American Meteorological Society, 1956
Radar data are utilized to describe the precipitation patterns with 30 summertime cold fronts in the vicinity of Cambridge, Massachusetts. An attempt to relate the precipitation type and coverage to synoptic parameters which can be obtained from the conventional meteorological charts yielded essentially negative results.

Multiple Fronts of the Cold War

2009
Throughout the cold war era, political refugees from the Communist-dominated countries in Central and Eastern Europe passionately clung onto their beliefs in the evil nature of the Communist ideology. Feeling the pressure from the Soviet regime, experiencing the increasing alienation from the American institutions, and seeing themselves as the lone ...

Pseudo-cold-fronts in the USA

pure and applied geophysics, 1980
Beginning with Bergeron’s analysis of a pseudo-cold-front over the Middle Western United States, the general characteristics of this phenomenon are described in relation to convective cloud systems with organized persistent circulations. Features reviewed include the roles of condensation and evaporation in driving these circulations, their relation to
