Mesoscale Atmospheric Circulation and Diffusion Characteristics
, 1973 Constant volume superpressure pillow balloons were flown over a mountain valley downwind from a sharp ridge line. Balloon trajectories revealed and atmospheric soundings confirmed a persistent turbulently mixed adiabatic layer over the valley at approximately ridge top height except in the immediate lee of the ridge where strong vertical motions were ...

Global contributions of mesoscale dynamics to meridional heat transport [PDF]
Ocean Science, 2021 Mesoscale ocean processes are prevalent in many parts of the global oceans and may contribute substantially to the meridional movement of heat. Yet earlier global surveys of meridional temperature fluxes and heat transport (HT) have not formally ...

Mesoscale characteristics [PDF]
Journal of Geophysical Research: Oceans, 2001 The spatial length, time, and propagation characteristics of the ocean mesoscale variability are examined throughout the globe. Sea surface height (SSH) variations from a combination of the Geosat Exact Repeat Mission, ERS‐1, ERS‐2, and TOPEX/Poseidon altimeter satellites are used to compute the observed covariance of the mesoscale.

Analysis of Underwater Acoustic Propagation under the Influence of Mesoscale Ocean Vortices
Journal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2021 Mesoscale ocean vortices are common phenomenon and fairly distributed over the global oceans. In this study, mesoscale vortex in the South China Sea is identified by processing of AIPOcean data.

Characteristics of Regions with High-Density Initiation of Flashes in Mesoscale Convective Systems [PDF]
Remote Sensing, 2022 To investigate the characteristics of regions exhibiting multiple lightning initiations within a finite volume and a short time, the lightning location data obtained from the convective regions of 14 mesoscale convective systems were analyzed in combination with data from radar. In total, 415 out of 5996 radar grids (1 km × 1 km × 0.5 km) were found to
