A Modeling Study of the Initial Formation of Polar Lows in the Vicinity of the Arctic Front

A regional mathematical model of the wind system of the lower atmosphere, developed recently in the Polar Geophysical Institute, is applied to investigate the initial stage of the formation of polar lows at latitudes of the European Arctic. The mathematical model is based on numerical solving of non...
