    Abstract
    Deep cloud systems in the Tropics play a significant role in the global heat budget. This is due to the fact that atmospheric circulations, such as the Hadley and Walker cells, are sensitive to the shape of the diabatic heating profile, which in turn depends on the vertical structure of tropical convective systems. The goal of this project is to create a climatology of the vertical structure of precipitating cloud systems that characterized the 2004 North American monsoon. The study utilized data from the 2875-MHz profiler stationed near Sinaloa, Mexico from early July through mid-September of ...
