From: Impact of multiple-scale circulation interactions on the spring diurnal precipitation over Luzon

Figure 8

Interaction between topography (black area) and multiple timescale circulations (arrows) over Luzon and the nearby oceans at local time (a) 14 h, (b) 20 h, and (c) 02 h. The red, yellow, blue, and green arrows represent the directions of the mountain–valley breeze, the island-scale land–sea breezes (LSB), the large-scale LSB-like circulation, and the mid-to-upper-level prevailing westerly wind, respectively. The formations of cloud (gray) induced by the convergence of wind fields are added to indicate the eastward propagation of diurnal precipitation shown in Fig. 5.
