- Coarse spatial and temporal resolution analyses have historically limited investigation of band life-cycle
- Novak et al. (2008) showed band life-cycle governed by evolution of frontogenesis, stability, and moisture
FORMATION: Release of conditional instability by increasing frontogenesis
MATURITY: Increasing stability offset by increasing frontogenetical forcing
DISSIPATION: Weakening frontogenesis in presence of large stability
Q1: Is this evolution observed in a larger sample of banded events?
