ENS Theodore Dorics 16 SEP 01 OC 3570
2
Data Collection Time Range: 02 AUG 17Z – 08 AUG 22Z
Spatial Range: N N 123.22W – W
3
Data Analysis 20 upper-air soundings analyzed
M-unit profiles generated Focus on lowest 2000 meters Lowest height of most significant trapping layer determined
4
“Significant” Trapping Layer
A negative gradient of at least 1 M-unit per 10 meters of height underlying a positive gradient meeting the same criteria. At least 100 m total thickness.
9
Data Distribution 36N 34N 122W 120W
10
Conclusions Decrease in trapping layer height with time.
increase in latitude. increase in longitude.
