Description
This study focuses upon the mechanisms by which mountains and synoptic weather systems interact to produce characteristic orographic cloud systems. In each of the three case studies, a synoptic cloud component, an orographic cloud component, and a convective cloud component were identified through the analysis of rawinsonde data, vertically pointing radar data, and visual observations.

Description
This study utilizes both an extensive set of observations and mesoscale model simulations to isolate and describe the important influences of complex terrain on Colorado Front Range winter storms, with an emphasis on snowfall distributions. Specifically, the interaction of various types of cold, low level air masses with topography and the larger-scale flow is described.
