While many of the factors that govern general weather                       patterns are fairly well understood, the physical phenomena that                control localized severe events, such as extremely heavy                        snowfalls or flash floods, are still somewhat of a mystery.                     These mesoscale phenomena, as they are called by meteorologist,                 currently are the subject of intense investigations within the                  meteorological community.                                                           The Principal Investigator will undertake a theoretical and                 numerical modeling investigation of two mesoscale phenomena                     (frontogenetical forcing and moist symmetric stability).  These                 features may be responsible in some cases for the formation of                  intense rain/snow bands that often form in the vicinity of                      meteorological fronts.  Results of this study should lead to                    better fundamental understanding of the physics of banded                       precipitation structures and eventually to improved short range                 precipitation predictions.//
