    • Asymmetry of Daily Temperature Records 

      Ashkenazy, Yosef; Feliks, Yizhak; Gildor, Hezi; Tziperman, Eli (American Meteorological Society, 2008)
      The authors study the NCEP–NCAR reanalysis temperature records and find that surface daily mean temperature cools rapidly and warms gradually at the midlatitudes (around 40°N and 40°S). This “asymmetry” is partially related ...

    • Nonnormal Frontal Dynamics 

      Feliks, Yizhak; Tziperman, Eli; Farrell, Brian F. (American Meteorological Society, 2010)
      The generalized stability of the secondary atmospheric circulation over strong SST fronts is studied using a hydrostatic, Boussinesq, two-dimensional f-plane model. It is shown that even in a parameter regime in which these ...
