Effects of Vertical Wind Shear on the Intensity and Structure of Numerically Simulated Hurricanes
A series of numerical simulations of tropical cyclones in idealized large-scale environments is performed to examine the effects of vertical wind shear on the structure and intensity of hurricanes. The simulations are performed using the nonhydrostatic Pennsylvania State University–National Center for Atmospheric Research fifth-generation Mesoscale Model using a 5-km fine mesh and fully explici...
متن کاملPotential vorticity 1
LTEX source, defined here to print as italic. Possible cross-references to other articles are flagged \crossref{...}. For visibility, \crossref{...} is temporarily defined to print as sans-serif. Therefore, sans-serif italic signals both a new term and a possible cross-reference. I have used \openingscarequote...\closingscarequote in a few places. This bends the house-style rules, but unfortuna...
متن کاملPotential Vorticity as Meridional Coordinate
The dynamical equations of atmospheric flow are written using potential vorticity as the meridional coordinate and potential temperature as the vertical coordinate. Within this system, the atmosphere is divided into undulating tubes bounded by isentropic and constant potential vorticity surfaces, and, under adiabatic and frictionless conditions, the air moves through the tubes without penetrati...

In this paper we derive the quasigeostrophic potential vorticity equations, starting from primitive type equations, as the Rossby number goes to zero, and prove the convergence as long as the limit system has strong enough solutions. We in particular take account of the boundary layers and investigate the existence of global weak solutions of the limit system with physical boundary conditions.
متن کاملSymmetry Analysis of Barotropic Potential Vorticity Equation
Recently F. Huang [Commun. Theor. Phys. 42 (2004) 903] and X. Tang and P.K. Shukla [Commun. Theor. Phys. 49 (2008) 229] investigated symmetry properties of the barotropic potential vorticity equation without forcing and dissipation on the beta-plane. This equation is governed by two dimensionless parameters, F and β, representing the ratio of the characteristic length scale to the Rossby radius...
