[1] Imaging measurements of a bright wave event in the nighttime mesosphere were made on 14 November 1999 at two sites separated by over 500 km in the southwestern United States. The event was characterized by a sharp onset of a series of extensive wavefronts that propagated across the entire sky. The waves were easily visible to the 1 naked eye, and the entire event was observed for at least 5 2 hours. The event was observed using three wide-angle imaging systems located at the Boston University field station at McDonald Observatory (MDO), Fort Davis, Texas, and the Starfire Optical Range (SOR), Albuquerque, New Mexico. The spaced imaging measurements provided a unique opportunity to estimate the physical extent and time history of the disturbance. Simultaneous radar neutral wind measurements in the 82 to 98 km altitude region were also made at the SOR which indicated that a strong vertical wind shear of 19.5 msÀ1kmÀ1 occurred between 80 and 95 km just prior to the appearance of the disturbance. Simultaneous lidar temperature and density measurements made at Fort Collins, Colorado, 1100 km north of MDO, show the presence of a large (50 K) temperature inversion layer at the time of the wave event.

  • An Undular Bore and Gravity Waves Illustrated by Dramatic Time-Lapse Photography
    AUGUST 2010 C O L E M A N E T A L . 1355 An Undular Bore and Gravity Waves Illustrated by Dramatic Time-Lapse Photography TIMOTHY A. COLEMAN AND KEVIN R. KNUPP Department of Atmospheric Science, University of Alabama in Huntsville, Huntsville, Alabama DARYL E. HERZMANN Department of Agronomy, Iowa State University, Ames, Iowa (Manuscript received 24 March 2010, in final form 17 May 2010) ABSTRACT On 6 May 2007, an intense atmospheric undular bore moved over eastern Iowa. A ‘‘Webcam’’ in Tama, Iowa, captured dramatic images of the effects of the bore and associated gravity waves on cloud features, because its viewing angle was almost normal to the propagation direction of the waves. The time lapse of these images has become a well-known illustration of atmospheric gravity waves. The environment was favorable for bore formation, with a wave-reflecting unstable layer above a low-level stable layer. Surface pressure and wind data are correlated for the waves in the bore, and horizontal wind oscillations are also shown by Doppler radar data. Quantitative analysis of the time-lapse photography shows that the sky brightens in wave troughs because of subsidence and darkens in wave ridges because of ascent. 1. Introduction et al. 2010). There is typically an energy imbalance across the bore. The form of the dissipation of the energy is During the morning hours of 6 May 2007, an intense related to the bore strength h /h ,whereh is the initial atmospheric bore, with a pressure perturbation of 4 hPa, 1 0 0 depth of the stable layer and h is its postbore depth.

  • HURRICANE MARIE (EP132014) 22 – 28 August 2014
    NATIONAL HURRICANE CENTER TROPICAL CYCLONE REPORT HURRICANE MARIE (EP132014) 22 – 28 August 2014 David A. Zelinsky and Richard J. Pasch National Hurricane Center 30 January 2015 GOES-W VISIBLE IMAGE OF HURRICANE MARIE AT PEAK INTENSITY, 1800 UTC 24 AUGUST 2014. CREDIT: NHC Marie was the first category 5 hurricane (on the Saffir-Simpson Hurricane Wind Scale) in the eastern North Pacific basin since Hurricane Celia in 2010. Its estimated maximum sustained winds of 140 kt make it tied for the fourth strongest hurricane in the eastern North Pacific since reliable records began in 1988. Although it remained well offshore, large waves from Marie affected portions of the coast from southwestern Mexico to southern California. Hurricane Marie 2 Hurricane Marie 22 – 28 AUGUST 2014 SYNOPTIC HISTORY Hurricane Marie developed from a tropical wave that crossed the coast of Africa and entered the eastern tropical Atlantic on 10 August (Fig. 1). Although the wave was associated with a distinct low- to mid-level vorticity maximum and moist air near the wave axis, strong easterly shear and entrainment of dry environmental air prevented development of the system over the eastern and central tropical Atlantic. The wave entered the Caribbean Sea on 16 August, at which time interactions with South America and an upper-level trough further inhibited development. The wave crossed Central America around 19 August and subsequently moved into a far more conducive environment for development in the eastern North Pacific. The favorable environment supported persistent widespread convection that led to the development of a large but disorganized area of low pressure by early 20 August.

  • NASA Sees Huge Hurricane Marie Slam Socorro Island 26 August 2014, by Rob Gutro
    NASA sees huge Hurricane Marie slam Socorro Island 26 August 2014, by Rob Gutro tightly wound center and eye. A thick band of powerful thunderstorms surrounded the center of circulation, and bands of thunderstorms spiraled into the center from the west, that wrapped entirely around the outside perimeter. The image was created by the MODIS Rapid Response Team at NASA's Goddard Space Flight Center in Greenbelt, Maryland. Mexico's Socorro Island is a small volcanic island located about 600 kilometers off the country's western coast. There are about 45 people on the island including the residents of a naval station. Socorro Island was pummeled with heavy rainfall, hurricane-force winds and high, dangerous surf. Marie is also generating dangerous surf along the western coast of mainland Mexico. Swells generated by Marie are affecting much of the Baja California peninsula and the southern Gulf of California. The National Hurricane Center (NHC) noted that these swells are spreading northwestward and will reach the southern California later today. Life-threatening surf and rip current conditions are likely as a result of these On Aug. 25 at 18:20 UTC (2:20 p.m. EDT) the MODIS swells...as well as minor coastal flooding. instrument aboard NASA's Terra satellite captured Hurricane Marie's center just west of Socorro Island, Mexico in the Eastern Pacific. Credit: NASA's Goddard MODIS Rapid Response Team NASA's Terra satellite passed over Hurricane Marie when its eye was just to the west of Socorro Island in the Eastern Pacific. Marie's eye may have been near the island, but the storm extended several hundreds of miles from there.

Tropical 1 cyclone activity is reviewed by oceanic basin, covering those that developed in the North Atlantic, Northwest Pacific, Northeast Pacific, North Indian Ocean and Australia. This report includes estimates of the economic and insured losses sus- tained from each cyclone (where possible). Predictions of tropical cyclone activity for the 2009 season are given per oceanic basin when permitted by available data. In the North Atlantic, 16 tropical storms formed during the 2008 season, compared to the 1950 to 2007 average of 9.7,1 an increase of 65 percent.
