Description
The geostrophic system of equations with both the effects of orography and heat contrast corresponding to land-sea distribution is integrated with respect to time by using the spectral method. The computed results show the appearance of reasonable blocking situation and a corresponding double jet stream in the latitudinal distribution of the zonally averaged zonal wind.

Description
A persistent feature of the atmosphere over the eastern portions of the Pacific and Atlantic oceans is the existence of broad areas of stratocumulus convection. These stratocumulus regimes lie to the east of the large semi-permanent subtropical high pressure centers.

Description
A one-layer bulk boundary layer model is developed following earlier work by Randall and Moeng. The model predicts the mixed layer values of the potential temperature, mixing ratio, and u- and v-momentum. The model also predicts the depth of the boundary layer and the vertically integrated turbulence kinetic energy (TKE).

Description
A linear theory is given for the case of steady thermal convection in a stratified fluid with a general thermal boundary condition at the upper and lower limits of the system. The theory is applied to a number of fluid systems and the results are discussed in terms of the Rayleigh number, the horizontal wave number and the vertical velocity and temperature perturbation profiles in the vertical.

Description
This paper presents a diagnostic study of two models proposed by Betts (1973a). The first was a model for a well-mixed sub-cloud layer capped by a more stable transition layer. The downward heat flux at the base of this transition layer is here estimated from the thermal structure of the layer to be 15-25% of the surface sensible heat flux. The second model was a model for a two layer lapse-rate structure for the cumulus layer. A sensitivity analysis...
