Characteristics of Penetration of Sea Breeze Front along a River

Abstract

Meteorological field observations were conducted along Sagami river basin to investigate the characteristics of penetration of sea breeze front along a river (wind channel effect). The meteorological observations based on the ground level show the existence of four types of local wind front. The observed speed and thickness of sea breeze agree well with theories.
The vertical structure of sea breeze are also discussed using captive baroon and Doppler Soder data.
