We are aware of a technical issue preventing figures and tables from showing in some newly published articles in the full-text HTML view.
While we are resolving the problem, please use the online PDF version of these articles to view figures and tables.

A detailed and unique multisensor observation of an undular bore is presented. The data include those from rawinsonde, satellite, two Doppler radars, and a tall instrumented tower. Noteworthy are Doppler radar images that resolve the wave's characteristics and capture a good part of its spatial extent. The basic parameters of the wave train are established from the observations.
