  1. Observations of the Finescale Structure of 11 June Dryline During IHOP 2002 ASP Research Review Huaqing Cai NCAR/ASP/ATD

  2. Outline • What is a dryline • Why study dryline • IHOP • Detailed observations of 11 June dryline • What’s next

  3. Adapted From Ziegler and Hane, 1993, MWR

  4. International H2O Project (IHOP) 2002 • The Quantitative Precipitation Forecast • The Convection Initiation • The Atmospheric Boundary Layer Process • The Instrumentation

  5. NASA DC8, German FALCON, Learjet, UW King Air

  6. Summary and Future Works • The detailed kinematic structure of the 11 June 2002 dryline has been documented by ELDORA observations. • The analysis of the Learjet dropsonds and S-Pol radar refractive index data have been completed. • Processing of Leandre water vapor DIAL data is undergoing. • Detailed kinematic and moisture fields of the dryline will help us to understand why this particular portion of the dryline failed to initiate storms.
