Unexpected High Winds in Northern New Jersey: A Downslope Windstorm in Modest Topography
This study presents the first evidence for the occurrence of a downslope windstorm in New Jersey. During the early morning hours of 4 January 2009, an unanticipated strong wind event was observed. Despite a zone forecast calling for winds less than 4 m s issued 4 h prior to the event, winds up to 23 m s were reported at High Point, New Jersey (elevation 550 m), with gusts to 30 m s in its immed...
متن کاملA Gravity Model for Exports from Iceland
This paper applies a gravity model to examine the determinants of Icelandic exports. The model specifications tested allow for sector and trade bloc estimation. Also, a combination of an export ratio and a gravity model is tested, as well as marine product subsamples. The estimates are based on panel data on exports from 4 sectors, to 16 countries, over a period of 11 years. Estimates indicate ...
متن کاملP1.23 Comparison of Two Windstorm Events during the Sierra Rotors Project and Terrain-induced Rotor Experiment
The main objective of the recent Terrain-induced Rotor Experiment (T-REX, Grubišić et al. 2008) was to perform a comprehensive study of the coupled mountainwave/rotor/boundary-layer system. In addition to this scientific objective, the data sets and findings of T-REX are expected to result in improvements in mesoscale and microscale modeling and the prediction of aviation hazards, aerosol trans...
متن کاملSurgery in Iceland.
Icelandic surgeons provide a wide range of modern surgical services with excellent results. How can a nation of fewer than 300,000 persons accomplish this? The main reasons are a thriving economy, a high standard of living and education, and the training of surgeons. All Icelandic surgeons receive their training overseas, many at university hospitals in the other Nordic countries, particularly ...
متن کاملIceland plans reigned in
