On the Method of Computing Vertical Motion in the Atmosphere (1st Report)

Abstract

Modifying the equation of potential temperature, two methods of computing vertical velocities are obtained. One of them is the single-station method using the data of pibal and sonde for a single aerological station only, and the other is the several-station method using the data of sonde for several stations. After making nomograms for simplicity in computations, the former method is applied in the case of cold front.
