A study of the relationship of the displacement of cyclone to various aspects of the upper air flow
48_Runk.pdf (1.085Mb)Abstract
The initial purpose for this research was to examine
quantitatively the effect of "thermal steering" as applied
to constant pressure and differential analysis. This investigation
was later expanded to a study of the correlation
between the displacement of cyclones and (1) the thermal wind,
(2) the geostrophic wind, and (3) the gradient wind. Since
an integrated effect of the atmospheric winds was desired,
the combined influence of the thermal wind for two layers
and of the geostrophic and gradient wind for three levels
was studied in order to add to the facts already known about
the steering effects of individual layers or levels.
