Forecasting Tornadoes in Georgia
Some climatological data on the seasonal, diurnal, and geographical distribut>iorl of tornadoes in Georgia are presented, and the tornado "season" is defined as occurring from February through April. Twelve different storms producing t,ornadoes during one or more 12-hour forecast periods are studied for synoptic similarities. A mean tornado sounding and a 700-mb. composite chart, taken from dat...
متن کاملTweeting and tornadoes
Social Media and micro-blogging is being used during crisis events to provide live up-to-date information as events evolve (before, during and after). Messages are posted by citizens or public officials. To understand the effectiveness of these messages, we examined the content of geo-located Twitter messages (“tweets”) sent during the Moore, Oklahoma tornado of May 20, 2013 (+/-1day) to explor...
متن کاملTwo-fluid Electrokinetic Flow in a Circular Microchannel (RESEARCH NOTE)
The two-fluid flow is produced by the combined effects of electroosmotic force in a conducting liquid and pressure gradient force in a non-conducting liquid. The Poisson-Boltzmann and Navier-Stokes equations are solved analytically; and the effects of governing parameters are examined. Poiseuille number increases with increasing the parameters involved. In the absence of pressure gradient, the ...
متن کاملOverlimiting current in a microchannel.
We revisit the classical problem of diffusion-limited ion transport to a membrane (or electrode) by considering the effects of charged sidewalls. Using simple mathematical models and numerical simulations, we identify three basic mechanisms for overlimiting current in a microchannel: (i) surface conduction carried by excess counterions, which dominates for very thin channels, (ii) convection by...
متن کاملPhysically-Based Simulation of Tornadoes
In this paper, we present a physically-based model to perform 3D visual simulation of tornadoes. Simulating natural phenomena based on physically realistic models has been an active research area in computer graphics. The tornado phenomenon is a spectacular one as it demonstrates the magnificent strength of forces of nature and its shear size. Previous research on tornadoes have focused either ...
