Some Aspects of Cloud and Precipitation Features Associated with a Mid-Latitude Cyclone
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: A multi-level diagnostic model is used to study the physical and dynamical mechanisms that produce low-level clouds and light precipitation within the cold air sector on the west side of a Midwest cyclone. Computational ...
Some Geographical Variations of Terrestrial Radiation Measured by TIROS II
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Infrared radiation observations made by TIROS II during 27 days between 26 November 1960 and 6 January 1961 are used to obtain mean latitudinal profiles of outgoing long-wave radiation. The mean profiles revealed an ...
Mechanisms for Diurnal Boundary Layer Circulations in the Great Basin Desert
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The purpose of this observation- and model-based study of the Great Basin Desert boundary layer is to illustrate the variety of locally forced circulations that can affect such an area during a diurnal cycle. The area of ...
The Operational Mesogamma-Scale Analysis and Forecast System of the U.S. Army Test and Evaluation Command. Part II: Interrange Comparison of the Accuracy of Model Analyses and Forecasts
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: This study builds upon previous efforts to document the performance of the U.S. Army Test and Evaluation Command?s Four-Dimensional Weather Modeling System using conventional metrics. Winds, temperature, and specific ...
