  • Calculated Height Tendencies in Two Southern Hemisphere Blocking and Cyclone Events: The Contribution of Diabatic Heating to Block Intensification 

    Lupo, Anthony R., 1966-; Market, Patrick S.; Melick, Christopher J., 1975-; Tilly, Douglas E. (American Meteorological Society, 2008-09)
    The Zwack-Okossi vorticity tendency equation was used to calculate 500-hPa height tendencies in two intensifying Southern Hemisphere blocking events. The National Centers for Environmental Prediction- National Center for ...

  • A comparison of two cases of low-latitude thundersnow 

    Neto, G. Dolif; Market, Patrick S.; Becker, Amy E.; Pettegrew, Brian P., 1979-; Melick, Christopher J., 1975-; Schultz, C.; Buckley, Patrick I.; Clark, Joseph V.; Lupo, Anthony R., 1966-; Holle, R.; Demetriades, N.; Barbieri, Carla Eliana (Centro Ciencias Atmosfera UNAM, 2009-03)
    Two cases of low-latitude snow with lightning are studied to determine their characteristics. Both cases had synoptic-scale origins, but also featured smaller-scale influences (e. g. orographic lift and elevated instability).The ...

  • The Interannual variability of hurricane activity in the Atlantic and east pacific regions 

    Lupo, Anthony R., 1966-; Latham, Tamara K.; Magill, Trenton H.; Clark, Joseph V.; Melick, Christopher J., 1975-; Market, Patrick S. (National Weather Association, 2008-07)
    The investigation of the interannual and interdecadal variations in hurricane activity has been an important topic of study lately, especially with regard to their implications for climate change issues. On the interannual ...

  • On the synoptic and mesoscale organization of mid-latitude, continental convective snow events 

    Melick, Christopher J., 1975- (University of Missouri--Columbia, 2008)
    An ingredients-based methodology was pursued in order to evaluate the likelihood of thunderstorms occurring in the presence of snowfall (i.e. thundersnow; TSSN). In order to properly distinguish from typical snowstorms ...
