Summary
Abstract: The Fronts 92 field experiment took place in the Eastern North
Atlantic with the objective to study the dynamics of frontal systems
in the region. The data presented here are from the third Intensive
Observation Period (IOP). During this period a rapidly developing cold
frontal wave crossed the field experiment area. This case ... View entire text
