Mesoscale Ascent in Nocturnal Low-Level Jets [PDF]
Journal of the Atmospheric Sciences, 2018 A theory for gentle but persistent mesoscale ascent in the lower troposphere is developed in which the vertical motion arises as an inertia–gravity wave response to the sudden decrease of turbulent mixing in a horizontally heterogeneous convective boundary layer (CBL).

Taklimakan Desert nocturnal low-level jet: climatology and dust activity [PDF]
Atmospheric Chemistry and Physics, 2016 While nocturnal low-level jets (NLLJs) occur frequently in many parts of the world, the occurrence and other detailed characteristics of NLLJs over the Taklimakan Desert (TD) are not well known.

Measurements and Modelling of Offshore Wind Profiles in a Semi-Enclosed Sea
Atmosphere, 2019 A conically scanning, continuous-wave LIDAR is placed on an island in the central Baltic Sea with large open-water fetch, providing wind and turbulence profiles up to 300 m height.

Low‐Level Baroclinic Jets Over the New Arctic Ocean [PDF]
Journal of Geophysical Research: Oceans, 2018 AbstractDuring the Sea State cruise in the fall of 2015, in the Chukchi/Beaufort Sea region, there were five strong (>10 m s−1) surface wind events associated with low‐level atmospheric jets. These jets were analyzed using rawinsonde observations, ship measurements, and a numerical forecast model.

A low-level jet in eastern Iran: a possible factor in dust events in the region [PDF]
Desert, 2015 One of the world's major mineral dust source regions lies along the border between Iran and Afghanistan. In this studyit is hypothesized that a low-level jet may play in role in generating the intensity of this source region.

The South American Low-Level Jet Experiment
Bulletin of the American Meteorological Society, 2006 Abstract Moisture is transported in South America westward from the tropical Atlantic Ocean to the Amazon basin, and then southward toward the extratropics. A regional intensification of this circulation to the east of the Andes Mountains is called the South American low-level jet (SALLJ), with the strongest winds found over eastern Bolivia.

Analytical description of a nocturnal low‐level jet [PDF]
Quarterly Journal of the Royal Meteorological Society, 2010 AbstractAn exact analytical solution of the equations of motion is presented for the Blackadar conceptual model of the nocturnal low‐level jet as an inertial oscillation arising from the sudden release of frictional constraint (near‐cessation of dry‐convective turbulent mixing) near sunset.

Low-level stratiform clouds and dynamical features observed within the southern West African monsoon [PDF]
Atmospheric Chemistry and Physics, 2019 During the boreal summer, the monsoon season that takes place in West Africa is accompanied by low stratus clouds over land that stretch from the Guinean coast several hundred kilometers inland. Numerical climate and weather models need finer description

Offshore Migration of Summer Monsoon Low‐Level Jet on a Diurnal Scale
Geophysical Research Letters, 2023 This study investigates the diurnal migration of the low‐level jet (LLJ) over the Bay of Bengal in the summer monsoon, which remains understudied despite the well‐documented diurnal offshore propagation of rainfall worldwide.
