Prognostication of the movement of thickness lines in relation to the 700 MB. Winds
48_Keegan.pdf (1.087Mb)Abstract
This study of the movement of thickness lines of differential
analysis in relation to the 700 mb. winds was conducted at the U. S.
Naval Postgraduate School, Annapolis, Maryland during the academic
year 1947 - 1948. The purpose was to obtain forecasting rules based
on the 700 mb. winds for the preparation of upper air prognostic charts
and to study the movements of thickness lines when non-advective
influences were present.
