Abstract

The effects of the hurricane boundary layers (HBL) rolls, specifically momentum transfer, on the surface wind field were discussed. The three SBCCOM towers and a shared mobile atmospheric research and teaching (SMART) radar were developed to investigate the effects. Rolls were identified on the radar data, and some of them were located near and over the experimental setup. The time series show that a correlation exists between the two data sets.
