Book excerpt: "In this thesis, a series of (48-60 h) numerical simulations of a family of frontal cyclogenesis events that occurred over western Atlantic Ocean during 13-15 March 1992 are conducted using a nested-grid version of the PSU/NCAR mesoscale model (MM4) with a fine-mesh grid size of 30 km. It is shown that MM4 captures very well the genesis, track and intensity of three secondary cyclones, their associated thermal structure and precipitation pattern as well as their surface circulations." --
