Cloud Streets. A Study of the Instability Mechanisms Giving Rise to Boundary Layer Rolls

Boundary layer rolls are a rather frequent phenomena, where regions of alternating up- and downdraft motion causes clouds to form in elongated, parallel rows oriented with the mean wind direction. The clouds can be seen during certain atmospheric conditions and are often called ”cloud streets” becau...
