A Land Data Assimilation System for Soil Moisture and Temperature: An Information Content Study
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: A Canadian Land Data Assimilation System (CaLDAS) for the analysis of land surface prognostic variables is designed and implemented at the Meteorological Service of Canada for the initialization of numerical weather ...
Evaluation of the Town Energy Balance Model in Cold and Snowy Conditions during the Montreal Urban Snow Experiment 2005
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Using the Montreal Urban Snow Experiment (MUSE) 2005 database, surface radiation and energy exchanges are simulated in offline mode with the Town Energy Balance (TEB) and the Interactions between Soil, Biosphere, and ...
Simulation of an Orographic Precipitation Event during IMPROVE-2. Part I: Evaluation of the Control Run Using a Triple-Moment Bulk Microphysics Scheme
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: This paper reports the first evaluation of the Milbrandt?Yau multimoment bulk microphysics scheme against in situ microphysical measurements. The full triple-moment version of the scheme was used to simulate a case of ...
A Global Root-Zone Soil Moisture Analysis Using Simulated L-band Brightness Temperature in Preparation for the Hydros Satellite Mission
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The aim of this study is to test a land data assimilation prototype for the production of a global daily root-zone soil moisture analysis. This system can assimilate microwave L-band satellite observations such as those ...
Simulation of an Orographic Precipitation Event during IMPROVE-2. Part II: Sensitivity to the Number of Moments in the Bulk Microphysics Scheme
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: This is the second in a series of papers examining the behavior of the Milbrandt?Yau multimoment bulk microphysics scheme for the simulation of the 13?14 December 2001 case of orographically enhanced precipitation observed ...
Evaluation of Tropical Cyclones in the Canadian Global Modeling System: Sensitivity to Moist Process Parameterization
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: eep convection is one of various complex processes driving the evolution of tropical cyclones (TCs). The scales associated with deep convection are too small to be resolved by global NWP models. In the deep convection ...
Overview and First Results of the Montreal Urban Snow Experiment 2005
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Within the framework of a large urban meteorology program recently launched in Canada, the Montreal Urban Snow Experiment (MUSE) campaign has been conducted in order to document the thermoradiative exchanges in a densely ...
The Montreal-96 Experiment on Regional Mixing and Ozone (MERMOZ): An Overview and Some Preliminary Results
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The MERMOZ (Montreal-96 Experiment on Regional Mixing and Ozone) field experiment was conducted in the greater Montreal area in June 1996. The measurement program was designed to examine several aspects of boundary layer ...
Environment Canada's Experimental Numerical Weather Prediction Systems for the Vancouver 2010 Winter Olympic and Paralympic Games
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The 2010 Winter Olympic and Paralympic Games took place in Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada, on 12?28 February and 12?21 March 2010, respectively. Weather forecasting presents specific challenges at the various Olympic ...
The Environment Canada Pan and Parapan American Science Showcase Project
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: AbstractThe Pan and Parapan American Games (PA15) are the third largest sporting event in the world and were held in Toronto in the summer of 2015 (10?26 July and 7?15 August). This was used as an opportunity to coordinate ...
