Weather Tutor I: Stability Basics

Abstract

This is the first in a series of computer-based interactive packages produced by Air Weather Service for use by Air Force weather units. It consists of text (instructions for running and using the computer program) and three 3 1/ 2-inch diskettes containing program software that generate high-resolution graphic images, animation, and text. The training package is in three parts: the first familiarizes students with the relationships between atmospheric variables. The second correlates these variables to atmospheric stability using the parcel theory and the Equation of State. The third and final part demonstrates the relationships of stability and moisture content with corresponding cloud scenes. An entry knowledge test is required before starting the lesson.
