Upper and lower level PV-coupling associated with Alpine lee cyclogenesis

With the aid of six-hourly cross-section sets the interaction of upper and lower tropospheric potential vorticity maxima is investigated diagnostically for four Alpine lee cyclogenesis events. The cross-sections are derived from objective fine mesh analyses based on a corrected ALPEX-IIb SYNOP and R...
