Generally northern hemisphere winds at 5000 FT/AGL are south-westerly while most of the surface winds are southerly. What is the primary reason of difference between these two wind directions?
In the northern hemisphere a pilot flying at 1000 FT/AGL directly towards the centre of a low pressure area, will find the wind blowing from
For an idealised Northern Hemisphere marine-friction exercise, assume the surface wind backs by 10° and its speed is 80% of the cyclonic gradient wind. If the gradient wind is 350°/24 kt, which listed surface wind is closest to the model’s estimate?
An aircraft is approaching under visual flight rules an airfield (northern hemisphere) whose runway is parallel to the coast. When downwind over the sea, the airfield is on the left. What wind effect should be anticipated on final approach and landing during a sunny afternoon?
At approximately what flight level is the subtropical jet stream found?
For a cyclonically curved polar-front jet, on which side of the core is clear-air turbulence commonly more likely to occur?
While crossing a jet stream at right angles in Western Europe (3000 FT below its core) and OAT is decreasing, what would be the prevailing wind?
On a particular day part of a polar front jet stream runs from north to south in the northern hemisphere. This means that
From summer to winter the average geographic position of the polar front jet stream over the North Atlantic moves
What is the definition of relative humidity with respect to liquid water?
