Using the quasigeostrophic potential vorticity height tendency equation to diagnose the development of midtropospheric mobile troughs /

The purpose of this research was to develop a technique to quantify the intensification mechanisms present in the development of midtropospheric mobile troughs. Mobile troughs are generally considered precursors to ntidlatitude cyclogenesis. The midlatitude cyclones are the primary sources of syno...
