Journal ArticleDOI

The MATERHORN: Unraveling the Intricacies of Mountain Weather

TL;DR: The Mountain Terrain Atmospheric Modeling and Observations (MATERHORN) Program as discussed by the authors is a research effort that draws the expertise of a multidisciplinary, multi-institutional, and multinational group of researchers.
Journal ArticleDOI

Observations of Near-Surface Heat-Flux and Temperature Profiles Through the Early Evening Transition over Contrasting Surfaces

TL;DR: In this article, near-surface turbulence data from the Mountain Terrain Atmospheric Modeling and Observations (MATERHORN) program are used to study countergradient heat fluxes through the early evening transition.
Journal ArticleDOI

A Case Study of the Nocturnal Boundary Layer Evolution on a Slope at the Foot of a Desert Mountain

TL;DR: In this article, a case study of nocturnal boundary layer development is presented for a night in mid-May when tethered-balloon measurements were taken to supplement other MATERHORN field measurements.
Journal ArticleDOI

Playa soil moisture and evaporation dynamics during the MATERHORN field program

TL;DR: In this article, the authors present an analysis of field data collected over a desert playa in western Utah, USA in May 2013, the most synoptically active month of the year, as part of the Mountain Terrain Atmospheric Modeling and Observations (MATERHORN) program.
Journal ArticleDOI

The evolution and sensitivity of katabatic flow dynamics to external influences through the evening transition

TL;DR: In this article, data collected over an arid shallow slope (2-4°) during the Mountain Terrain Atmospheric Modeling and Observations (MATERHORN) Program are used to study the katabatic structure and onset of katbalatic flow through the evening transition.
