Fig. 3. Vertical cross-section for 0000 UTC 13 March 1993. Map location of cross-section is shown in upper right inset. Solid lines denote geostrophic momentum (Mg, contour interval 10 ms-1), while dashed lines represent equivalent potential temperature ( thetae, contour interval 5 K). Dotted line encloses area of CSI; thick dashed line encloses conditional instability region.
