Radar estimates show nearly 2.5 inches had fallen by 22Z over areas south of Citronelle and near Mount Vernon. At 23Z the convective line had reached the Mississippi/Alabama border (Fig. 6). Low-level winds along the line were out of the northwest while winds ahead of the line were out of the south allowing for enhanced surface convergence. The surface convergence then redeveloped convection along the line generating storms with torrential rain rates of 2.75 in. h -1 over Saraland, Alabama (Fig. 10). These high rain rates ...

Along Australian continental shelves, high evaporation during summer and cooling during winter result in a cross-shelf density gradient that drives gravity currents transporting denser water along the sea bed offshore. This process is defined as Dense Shelf Water Cascade (DSWC). Multi-year transects (192) of ocean glider data from eight contrasting...
