Scope and Contents

Contents

Information from laboratory density current experiments (density currents are dynamically similar to outflows) was used to simulate thunderstorm outflow numerically. Three photographs are presented and analyzed: one shows a submerged density current moving in a laboratory tank and showing, clearly, Kelvin-Helmholtz shearing instabilities (i.e., vor...
