Explore: Mesoscale Phenomena

storm-scale phenomena (the size of an individual thunderstorm). Examples of mesoscale weather systems are sea breezes, squall lines, and mesoscale convective

natural water bodies can be predicted using Lagrangian transport models. Mesoscale ocean eddies play crucial roles in transferring heat poleward, as well

observed by mesonets. Due to the space and time scales associated with mesoscale phenomena and microclimates, weather stations comprising a mesonet are spaced

supercell. Supercell thunderstorms are the strongest and most severe. Mesoscale convective systems formed by favorable vertical wind shear within the

task was performed by developing models that described mesoscale systems, boundary layer phenomena, and the effects of terrain on atmospheric structure

charge regions in mature thunderstorms, usually the stratiform regions of mesoscale convective systems. These discharges usually begin as IC discharges originating

or wheels in satellite imagery), and typically organized in extensive mesoscale fields over marine environments. They are closely related to and sometimes

photochemistry and spectroscopy, artificial molecular machines, and mesoscale phenomena. García-Garibay received his B.S. from the University of Michoacán

to identify these features. A mesoscale convective vortex (MCV) is a low-pressure center (mesolow) within a mesoscale convective system (MCS) that pulls

scale. Mesocyclones, tornadoes, and dust devils lie within the smaller mesoscale. Upper level cyclones can exist without the presence of a surface low
