Record #104275:

The confluence zone of the intense katabatic winds at Terra Nova Bay, Antarctica, as derived from airborne sastrugi surveys and mesoscale numerical modeling / David H. Bromwich, Thomas R. Parish, Christian A. Zorman.

Title: The confluence zone of the intense katabatic winds at Terra Nova Bay, Antarctica, as derived from airborne sastrugi surveys and mesoscale numerical modeling / David H. Bromwich, Thomas R. Parish, Christian A. Zorman.
Author(s): Bromwich, David H.
Parish, Thomas R.
Zorman, Christian A.
Date: 1990.
In: Journal of Geophysical Research. (1990.), Vol. 95(D5) (1990)
Abstract: Airborne surveys of wind-induced features (sastrugi) on the snow surface used to construct the time-averaged winter surface airflow pattern and a mesoscale primitive evaluation model used to simulate the surface motion field. Both methods of analysis demonstrate that the intense katabatic airstream at Terra Nova Bay is forced by converging air currents in the continental interior.
Notes:
