, whereas in a tornado the rotation has a somewhat uncertain origin ( Rotunno 1984 ; Rotunno and Klemp 1985 ): it is thought to be linked to the preexistence of a downdraft that, together with precipitation introduced as in Markowski et al. (2003) , transports angular momentum to the ground where the circulation is then closed [see Wicker and Wilhelmson (1995) , and references therein]. More recent studies of tornadogenesis have included the effects of moisture and buoyancy, together with

inadequate physicsin the model equations or to insufficient numericalresolution. Certainly the absence of surface drag andthe simplification of microphysical and' turbulenceprocesses through parameterization might contributeto these discrepancies. However, we hypothesize thatnumerical resolution is the primary limitation in simulating the occlusion processes occurring during tornadogenesis, subject to verification in these experiments.

retrievalmethods to boundary layer data from Project PHOENIX. Pasken and Lin (1982) derived pressure perturbation fields in a tornadic storm which occurred on8 June 1974, using the technique outlined by GalChen (1978). In a study of tornadogenesis in threeobserved storms, Brandes (1984) derived pressure andpotential temperature fields using a slightly differentapproach, but also based upon the three momentumequations. Roux et al. (1984) applied a methodsimilar to that of Gal-Chen (1978) in deriving pressureand

main downdraft regions are apparent. By 1847 the Del City storm has reached its tornadic phase and its structure has evolved to thatshown in Fig. 6. Although the overall features of thestorm at this time are similar to those at 1833, significant smaller scale structure has developed in association with the tornadogenesis. Because of thestrong low-level cyclonic rotation the cold downdraft outflow appears to progress cyclonicallyaround the primary convergence zone between 1833and 1847. In this

Using dual-Doppler data obtained fromtwo different tornadic storms, Brandes (1984) studiedthe relationships between radar-derived thermodynamic variables and tornadogenesis from the surfaceto the middle troposphere.
