| Title | Long-Term Winter Inversion Properties in a Mountain Valley of the Western United States and Implications on Air Quality |
| Creator | Wang, Shih-Yu (Simon) Hipps, Lawrence E. Chung, Oi-Yu Gillies, Robert R. Martin, Randy S. |
| Description | Because of the geography of a narrow valley and surrounding tall mountains, Cache Valley (located in northern Utah and southern Idaho) experiences frequent shallow temperature inversions that are both intense and persistent. Such temperature inversions have resulted in the worst air quality in the nation. In this paper, the historical properties of Cache Valley’s winter inversions are examined by using two meteorological stations with a difference in elevation of approximately 100 m and a... |
