Abstract
The observing systems included a 10-cm wavelength meteorological Doppler radar operated by the Illinois State Water Survey, the Flatland 6-m wind profiler operated by the NOAA Aeronomy Laboratory, and an NCAR Cross-chain Loran Atmospheric Sounding System. In all, 26 storms were observed during the 3-year period. The associated precipitation ranged from highly convective storms in the warm sector to stratified clouds containing organized banded structure within the occlusion. The principle dynamical mechanisms at work often varied widely from one storm to another and sometimes within a storm. -from Authors
