“…Significant nocturnal jets occur on occasion in the Colorado -Green River Basin (Rider and Armendariz 1966). Limited data suggest that the phenomenon is less common and the shear and wind speeds are less than those observed in the Great Plains.…”

SummarySince 1974 an intensive investigation of the occurrence of low-level jet (LLJ) is conducted in tl~e Bavarian pre-alpine region and in the mountain valleys around Garmisch-Partenkirchen. Until now about 1500 balloon flights, usually tracked by double-theodolite observation, have been evaluated. The observed cases of LLJ have been divided into 4 types. Type (a) orographic LLJ; this type is observed during FOhn, Bora, or other local wind conditions. Type (b) -thermal LLJ; valley and mountain wind, for instance, belong to this type. Type (c) nocturnal LLJ; this type mainly forms during evening, night, or morning hours, and its development is caused by the reduction of the turbulent vertical exchange. Type (d) -LLJ of synoptic scale; this type is observed during pre-frontal conditions and is caused by the approach of a front. Highest wind speeds have been observed with types
