WestCoaster Posted October 21, 2015 Share Posted October 21, 2015 Hi there, Looking for information about waterspouts. Having trouble finding much material on the subject. Any ideas where I can find research papers for waterspouts? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DKJBama Posted October 24, 2015 Share Posted October 24, 2015 I've seen a couple on the Gulf coast. Glad you asked this,because it made me want to read up on them. Brittanica has a decent article; its not a paper written by a PhD Met, but I learned something from it. http://www.britannica.com/science/waterspout Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Turtle Posted October 31, 2015 Share Posted October 31, 2015 Hello. Have done research on waterspouts here in New England. Search papers written by Dr. Joseph Golden. He did a lot of groundbreaking research back in the 60s and 70s off the Florida coast. Also a lot of research done around the Great Lakes. There is a website out of Canada that has good information. Check this out: http://www.icwr.ca/ You can also search "winter waterspouts" and see some cool video on this. NWS Burlington had an episode in 2009 on Lake Champlain. Check this out: http://www.erh.noaa.gov/btv/events/15Jan2009/overview.shtml Here's another paper out of Melbourne, FL: http://www.srh.noaa.gov/images/mlb/pdfs/EmployingtheWSR88DforWaterspoutForecasting.pdf Here's another paper from Mariner's Log: http://www.vos.noaa.gov/MWL/dec_04/waterspout.shtml See if you can find info from AMS or NWA as well. Hope this helps. --Turtle Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
U_Thant Posted October 31, 2015 Share Posted October 31, 2015 Here's another paper out of Melbourne, FL: http://www.srh.noaa.gov/images/mlb/pdfs/EmployingtheWSR88DforWaterspoutForecasting.pdf <snip> In addition, to the paper in Turtle's link, forecasters from our office have posted several more papers on waterspouts and forecasting.. Just search for "waterspout" on this page... http://www.srh.noaa.gov/mlb/?n=research Piggybacking on the papers provided will ultimately send you to several earlier/seminal references on the subject. Happy researching! Tony Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
