The temperature of the solar cells on the upper surface of a solar unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) wing is much higher than the atmospheric temperature during flight. The temperature difference will induce buoyancy-driven Görtler vortices that may influenc...

In this paper, precipitation data from the Tropical Rainfall Measuring Mission (TRMM), together with atmospheric reanalysis data, are employed to identify warm-season precipitation (1998?2014) changes and their association with rapid urbanization in sout...

Frictional convergence in an atmospheric boundary layer topped by a stable free troposphere is considered. In agreement with extensive previous work, we find that atmospheric stability reduces the vertical scale of the free tropospheric secondary circula...

Ethylene emissions are characteristic of primary exhalations of vehicular combustion processes. Their reaction with hydroxyl radicals in the presence of solar UV radiation promotes the production of ozone. Previously, our research group reported the me...
