Casey Griffin – March 29
High-Temporal Resolution Observations of Tornadoes Using the Atmospheric Imaging Radar Casey Griffin Friday, March 29th 3:00pm/NWC 5600 Advisors: Dr. Robert Palmer and Dr. David Bodine Phased array radars provide flexible scanning strategies and high-temporal resolution data, which is particularly useful for studying rapidly evolving features, like tornadoes, which have advective timescales of 10 s or […]
Dr. Grace Guirong-March 29-Boundary Layer, Urban Meteorology, and Land-Surface Processes
At the WHAM laboratory, we have been simulating the tornadic wind fields numerically (using CFD simulations) and experimentally (in laboratory tornado simulators) to study the static and dynamic responses on civil structures induced by tornadoes. We believe that the entire community has a role to play in improving their community’s resilience to tornadoes. To achieve true tornado resilience, besides technical advancements, the whole community should be aware of the threats and, following best practices, act appropriately together.
Vivek Mahale – March 29
Analysis of the Dynamics and Microphysics of a Wet Downburst Case Using Dual-Polarization Radar Data 11 AM/NWC 4140 A significant, wet downburst affected Norman, Oklahoma, on 14 June 2011. Surface winds in excess of 35 m s-1 (>80 mph) and hailstones in excess of 4 cm diameter occurred during the downburst. The polarimetric S-band (~11.09 cm) […]
