Abstract. MST radars are capable of measuring vertical motion along a vertically directed beam. We present 8 years (1995–2003) averaged profile of vertical velocity in the troposphere and the lower stratosphere over Gadanki (13.5° N, 79.2° E), a tropical station. A downward mid-tropospheric w is observed with a reversal of sign around 10 km and a further reversal can also be seen at ~17 km. A significant diurnal and semidiurnal variation in vertical wind is observed for all heights with subsidence during the evening hours. Seasonal variability of vertical wind is also found to be quite appreci

Abstract:
Abstract The underwater glider is set to become an important platform for oceanographers to gather data within oceans. Gliders are usually equipped with a conductivity–temperature–depth (CTD) sensor, but a wide range of other sensors have been fitted to gliders. In the present work, the authors aim at measuring the vertical water velocity. The vertical water velocity is obtained by subtracting the vertical glider velocity relative to the water from the vertical glider velocity relative to the water surface. The latter is obtained from the pressure sensor. For the former, a quasi-static model o

Abstract:
Abstract Vertical velocities in the world’s oceans are typically small, less than 1 cm s−1, posing a significant challenge for observational techniques. Seaglider, an autonomous profiling instrument, can be used to estimate vertical water velocity in the ocean. Using a Seaglider’s flight model and pressure observations, vertical water velocities are estimated along glider trajectories in the Labrador Sea before, during, and after deep convection. Results indicate that vertical velocities in the stratified ocean agree with the theoretical Wentzel–Kramers–Brillouin (WKB) scaling of w; and in the

Abstract. Both climate forcing and climate sensitivity persist as stubborn uncertainties limiting the extent to which climate models can provide actionable scientific scenarios for climate change. A key, explicit control on cloud–aerosol interactions, the largest uncertainty in climate forcing, is the vertical velocity of cloud-scale updrafts. Model-based studies of climate sensitivity indicate that convective entrainment, which is closely related to updraft speeds, is an important control on climate sensitivity. Updraft vertical velocities also drive many physical processes essential to numer

The theoretical framework is applied to a set of four moorings located in the Southern Ocean.

Abstract At any given moment, huge amounts of thermal energy leave the earth’s surface to be carried upwards by natural convection. In this process, energy is transported by bulk motion of the fluid within which it is temporarily stored. Typically, the process is much more effective than thermal conduction which relies on diffusive molecular interactions. The latter take place at molecular velocities which hover around the velocity of sound; but molecular motion is omnidirectional and thus creates no net energy flux in any particular direction unless the temperature, and hence the sonic veloci

This study investigates the evolution of axial and radial velocities in the downwash-outwash region of a counter-rotating coaxial rotor hovering in-ground effect (IGE). The presence of the ground deflects the axial flow of the rotor wake radially outward, with mean radial velocities reaching approximately 2Vh along the ground. Based on the observed velocity profiles, the wake was classified into three distinct regions: the downwash region characterized by maximum wake contraction, the transition region where flow turns from axial to radial, and the outwash region exhibiting wall jet behavior.

The wake characteristics of a rotorcraft are affected by the proximity of a rotor to the ground surface, especially during hover.
