Chapter 6

Problems

1. Determine the downdraft speed that must be attained for entrainment to equal buoyancy ... See: Pr6.1

2. Estimate the effect of a surface heat flux on different convective outflows, using a simple axisymmetric density-current model ... See: Pr6.2

Exercises

1. Demonstrate a relationship between the scale of the forcing, the updraft core, the downdraft core, and then the outflow depth, using an idealized numerical model ... See: Ex6.1

Cases

1. Downburst with near symmetrical surface outflow, on 10 August 201, at ~0023 UTC, as observed by the Lubbock, Texas (KLBB) WSR-88D.
