REAL Observations of Fronts


This page lists cases of what appear to be the leading edges of density (or gravity) current fronts sweeping over the CSU Chico Farm. From the limited observations that we have thus far, they resemble the density current fronts identified in the CHATS experiment. However, further study is required to conclude whether they are indeed the same phenomenon.
