Numerical simulation of subsynoptic-scale cyclogenesis around an idealized Antarctic continent

Abstract: A three-dimensional numerical model of 100 km horizontal resolution was used to simulate subsynoptic-scale cyclogenesis around an idealized Antarctic continent. The simulation resolved a series of subsynoptic-scale cyclones around the idealized continent. These cyclones form adjacent to th...
