Have the topic titles of Cyclonic Rotation and Anti-cyclonic rotation been mis-placed in the section of Mesoscale Flows under Doppler Basics? I mean the anti-cyclonic rotation is discussed under the title of Cyclonic Rotation. Did anyone notice it?

I was hoping that people wouldn't make it to this module for a little while, Weiqing. It's a bit of a mess and I need to fix it, but I haven't found good examples to improve it. Part of the problem is that I have southern hemisphere examples mixed in with northern hemisphere ones and the labeling is very confusing. I'll fix it as soon as I can.

Hi everyone,

I think I've got the Doppler Basics - Mesoscale Flows section fixed up. I found some reference work by the US on the interpretation of doppler velocity patterns within convective storms that eliminated a lot of the confusion. I've also provided the entire paper at the end of the section.
