Vindstrengir og skjól vidh fjöll / Haraldur Ólafsson.
Title: | Vindstrengir og skjól vidh fjöll / Haraldur Ólafsson. |
Translated title: | Wind strengths and shadow in the mountains. |
Author(s): | Ólafsson, Haraldur. |
Date: | 1998. |
Language: | Icelandic. |
In: | Náttúrufraedingurinn. (1998.), Vol. 1 (1998) |
Abstract: | Describes violent orographic storm observed at Mossfellsbae and in neighbourhood in July 1990. Such storms are localised, and author describes numerical modelling of weather pattern and relates it to main frontal systems SW and NW of Iceland. Mountain effect is noted, and local features make speed at THingvellir relatively weak in such conditions. |
Notes: | Náttúrufraedingurinn. Vol. 1 :37-46 (1998). |
Keywords: | 519.673 -- Modelling. 551.55 -- Wind and air turbulence. D -- Atmospheric sciences. (*3) -- Arctic regions. (*35) -- Iceland. |
