Journal ArticleDOI
Observations of the Sea-Breeze Front during CaPE. Part II: Dual-Doppler and Aircraft Analysis
TL;DR: The three-dimensional kinematic structures of offshore and onshore flow sea-breeze fronts observed during the CaPE experiment are shown using high-resolution dual-Doppler and aircraft data.
Journal ArticleDOI
Observations of the Sea-Breeze Front during CaPE. Part I: Single-Doppler, Satellite, and Cloud Photogrammetry Analysis
TL;DR: In this paper, an analysis of two sea-breeze events on 6 August and 12 August 1991 is presented using single-Doppler observations, satellite images, and cloud pictures collected during the Convection and Precipitation/Electrification (CaPE) Experiment.
Journal ArticleDOI
Influence of the Synoptic-Scale Flow on Sea Breezes Observed during CaPE
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors analyzed a number of sea-breeze events during offshore, parallel, and onshore flow regimes during the Convection and Precipitation/Electrification Experiment (CaPE).
Journal ArticleDOI
Observations of a Florida Waterspout during CaPE
Roger M. Wakimoto,Jeffrey K. Lew +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, a case of a waterspout that developed from a relatively small cumulus cloud is presented, which is believed to be the first time that detailed Doppler radar information on a parent cloud has ever been collected.
Journal ArticleDOI
Structure of an Atmospheric Undular Bore Generated from Colliding Boundaries during CaPE
TL;DR: A case study of a sea-breeze front originating from the east coast of Florida colliding with a gust front moving toward the southeast is presented in this article, where single-and multi-Doppler radar analyses combined with serial balloon ascents suggest that the denser sea-reeze flow undercut the cold pool behind the gust front and may have generated a westward-propagating undular bore.
