Description
During the 1960's experimental and operational meteorological satellites carrying thermistor bolometer sensors were in orbit during about 60 months. Our paper presents a synopsis of results from these measurements.

Description
The results of this study show that the most important controls on inhibiting boundary layer growth in the wake of this squall line are a significant downward vertical velocity at the top of the mixed layer and an associated increase in stability of the overlying air.

Description
Mesoscale convective systems (MCSs) have a large influence on the weather over the central United States during the warm season by generating essential rainfall and severe weather. To gain insight into the predictability of these systems, the precursor environment of several hundred MCSs were thoroughly studied across the U.S. during the warm seasons of 1996-98.

Description
This study documents a class of squall lines that appears to be approximately two-dimensional, has a solid leading edge echo during a portion of its life cycle, and and has line-normal flow characterized by a continuous zone of negative horizontal velocity that slopes upward from the leading edge to the rear of the storm.

Description
Wind profiler data collected during FIRE-II, in November 1991, provided an opportunity for detailed observation of the passage of a warm front over Parsons, KS. Surface data, rawinsonde data and satellite observations were used to collaborate and understand the phenomena detected by the wind profiler.

Description
This paper discusses one to two day future tropical cyclone intensity change from both a composite and an individual case point-of-view. Tropical cyclones occurring in the Gulf of Mexico during the period 1957-1977 form the primary data source.

Description
Describes the basic system design and the radiative instrumentation maintained by Colorado State University on board the Convail 990 jet aircraft during the Summer Monsoon Experiment (MONEX). Discusses calibration procedures and gives the derived constraints used to convert instrument output to engineering units. Also discusses specific problems encountered during data reduction and the methods used to overcome them.
