frontogenesis

Frontogenesis occurs as a result of a developing baroclinic wave.

The thermal wind causes a deformation field and frontogenesis may occur.

Within a mid-latitude cyclone, these two key features play an essential role in frontogenesis.

In frontogenesis, temperature gradients need to tighten for initiation.

Q-vectors are used in atmospheric dynamics to understand physical processes such as vertical motion and frontogenesis.

Frontogenesis is the process of creating or steepening the temperature gradient of a front.

Semigeostrophic frontogenesis theory focuses on the role of horizontal deformation and shear.

As the temperature gradient steepens during frontogenesis, the thermal wind becomes imbalanced.

These bands in the comma head are associated with areas of frontogenesis, or zones of strengthening temperature contrast.

Atmospheric frontogenesis models: Mathematical formulation and solution.

He is perhaps best known for his work on the mathematical theory of extratropical cyclones and frontogenesis, particularly through the use of potential vorticity.

Frontogenesis is a meteorological process of tightening of horizontal temperature gradients to produce fronts.

In contrary to areas of "Frontogenesis", the areas where air masses diverge are called areas of frontolysis.

Next they had suffered force-fed explanations of frontogenesis, isopycnic ultra-centrifugal separative techniques, katabatics and orometrics.

A sharp trough connected Ruby with Skip at this time, which was undergoing frontogenesis as Ruby became extratropical.

His areas of research included free and thermally driven circulations, frontogenesis, and shear and gravitational-acoustic wave propagation in stratified media.

Under Sverre Petterssen, the thesis he produced was entitled Fronts and Frontogenesis in Relation to Vorticity.

The quasi-geostrophic equations fail in the dynamics of frontogenesis because this weather phenomenon is of smaller scale compared to the Rossby radius; so semigeostrophic theory is used.

The uneven solar heating (the formation of zones of temperature and moisture gradients, or frontogenesis) can also be due to the weather itself in the form of cloudiness and precipitation.

Those generated by atmospheric models as output from numerical weather prediction can have a variety of information on them, such as temperature, wind, precipitation, automated weather fronts, or derived atmospheric fields such as vorticity, stability indices, or frontogenesis.

By 1999, computer systems and software had finally become sophisticated enough to allow for the ability to underlay on the same workstation satellite imagery, radar imagery, and model-derived fields such as atmospheric thickness and frontogenesis in combination with surface observations to make for the best possible surface analysis.

The polar front jet stream is closely linked to the frontogenesis process in midlatitudes, as the acceleration/deceleration of the air flow induces areas of low/high pressure respectively, which link to the formation of cyclones and anticyclones along the polar front in a relatively narrow region.
