An aircraft case study of the spatial transition from closed to open mesoscale cellular convection over the Southeast Pacific
Aircraft measurements are presented from the 27/28 October 2008 case study of the VOCALS Regional Experiment (REx) over the remote subtropical southeast Pacific (18° S, 80° W). Data from two aircraft that took measurements approximately twelve hours apart but in the same advected air...
