Prediction and Predictability of High-Impact Western Pacific Landfalling Tropical Cyclone Vicente (2012) through Convection-Permitting Ensemble Assimilation of Doppler Radar Velocity
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: he current study explores the use of an ensemble Kalman filter (EnKF) based on the Weather Research and Forecasting (WRF) Model to continuously assimilate high-resolution Doppler radar data during the peak-intensity stage ...
Evaluation of Microphysics Schemes in Tropical Cyclones Using Polarimetric Radar Observations: Convective Precipitation in an Outer Rainband
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Kinematics and Microphysics of Convection in the Outer Rainband of Typhoon Nida (2016) Revealed by Polarimetric Radar
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: AbstractThis study analyzes the microphysics of convective cells in an outer rainband of Typhoon Nida (2016) using data collected by a newly upgraded operational polarimetric radar in China. The life cycle of these convective ...
Predictability and Dynamics of Hurricane Joaquin (2015) Explored through Convection-Permitting Ensemble Sensitivity Experiments
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: AbstractReal-time ensemble forecasts from the Pennsylvania State University (PSU) WRF EnKF system (APSU) for Hurricane Joaquin (2015) are examined in this study. The ensemble forecasts, from early in Joaquin?s life cycle, ...
Doppler radar analysis of a tornadic miniature supercell during the Landfall of Typhoon Mujigae (2015) in South China
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: n 4 October 2015, a miniature supercell embedded in an outer rainband of Typhoon Mujigae produced a major tornado in Guangdong Province of China, leading to 4 deaths and up to 80 injuries. This study documents the structure ...
The Pre-Depression Investigation of Cloud-Systems in the Tropics (PREDICT) Experiment: Scientific Basis, New Analysis Tools, and Some First Results
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: ipal hypotheses of a new model of tropical cyclogenesis, known as the marsupial paradigm, were tested in the context of Atlantic tropical disturbances during the National Science Foundation (NSF)-sponsored Pre-Depression ...
The Stratosphere–Troposphere Analyses of Regional Transport 2008 Experiment
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The Stratosphere?Troposphere Analyses of Regional Transport 2008 (START08) experiment investigated a number of important processes in the extratropical upper troposphere and lower stratosphere (UTLS) using the National ...
An In-Person Survey Investigating Public Perceptions of and Responses to Hurricane Rita Forecasts along the Texas Coast
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Hurricane Rita made landfall near the Texas?Louisiana border in September 2005, causing major damage and disruption. As Rita approached the Gulf Coast, uncertainties in the storm?s track and intensity forecasts, combined ...
The Extratropical Transition of Tropical Cyclones. Part I: Cyclone Evolution and Direct Impacts
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: AbstractExtratropical transition (ET) is the process by which a tropical cyclone, upon encountering a baroclinic environment and reduced sea surface temperature at higher latitudes, transforms into an extratropical cyclone. ...
