The Perfect Storm

sodding(a) Weather Analysis THE PERFECT STORM delinquent March 25, 2010 50 Points Using data from the NOAA ( home(a) Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration) and NCEP/NCAR (National Centers for environmental Prediction/National Center for Atmospheric Research) and whatsoever new(prenominal) circumferential sources, please provide a discussion and analysis of the severe stand events surrounding the sacking of the Andrea Gail and rescue of the Satori as presented in the book, The Perfect Storm, by Sebastian Junger. You are addicted the followers clues 1. Dates 27 October 1991 1 November 1991 2. General fix North Atlantic Ocean, latitude/longitude coordinates from text 3.Events as portrayed in the novel. 4. The NOAA special wedge report for this event (below) From these initial data points, recitation maps, the library, the internet and your fellowship to develop a more fully synthesized rendering and explanation of brave out events as they relate to the events experience d by the ring of the Andrea Gail, Coast rubber and yacht Satori. NOAA page for the Perfect Storm http//www. ncdc. noaa. gov/oa/ transmit/satelliteseye/cyclones/pfctstorm91/pfctstorm. html The following websites will be useful to develop maps. http//www. cdc. noaa. gov/Composites/ solar day/ http//www. cdc. noaa. gov/cgi-bin/Composites/printpage. l To remember the storm and its development, and to relate these factors to the story, you may map any variable/ construction of the days that these events were occurring. Consider and present factors such as storm warmth and track, fronts, jet stream and surface rises. I declare oneself using (mapping) both(prenominal) of the following variables temperature, particularised humidity (for moisture), vector wind and geopotential height (to say pressure disturbances) to represent the atmosphere at the surface, and perhaps at other levels such as the lower troposphere (850 mb), middle troposphere (500 mb) and upper berth troposphere (300 mb).Based on what you know of storms, describe how the atmospheric environment contributed to the development of the prevail systems that finished the Andrea Gail. You have been given the what, the when and the where you must provide the why and the how. Deliverables Technical catalogue Minimum of 3 typed pages of text diagnosing the weather event and relating specific portions of the storms anatomy to the location of the vessels and events in The Perfect Storm, improver maps.

Co nsider and present factors such as storm intensity and track, fronts, jet stream and surface winds. I suggest using (mapping) some of the following variables temperature, specific humidity (for moisture), vector wind and geopotential height (to show pressure disturbances) to represent the atmosphere at the surface, and possibly at other levels such as the lower troposphere (850 mb), middle troposphere (500 mb) and upper troposphere (300 mb).Based on what you know of storms, describe how the atmospheric environment contributed to the development of the weather systems that destroyed the Andrea Gail. You have been given the what, the when and the where you must provide the why and the how.
