Zusammenfassung |
In this paper, we clarify several outstanding issues concerning the
predominant mechanism of vorticity generation in mesoscale convective
vortices (MCVs) in weak to modest baroclinic environments with nonzero
Coriolis parameter. We examine also the corresponding diabatic heating
profiles of the convective and stratiform components of the MCS and their
effects on the concentration and dilution of PV substance. |
