RISPrecipitation over Greenland Retrieved by a Dynamic Method and Its Relation to Cyclonic Activity
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: In order to calculate the vertical motion over some high mountain regions, such as Greenland, an ?-equation without the quasigeostrophic approximation in σ-coordinates has been developed. A dynamic method for retrieving ...
High-Resolution Regional Climate Simulations over Iceland Using Polar MM5
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: High-resolution regional climate simulations of Iceland for 1991?2000 have been performed using the fifth-generation Pennsylvania State University?National Center for Atmospheric Research (PSU?NCAR) Mesocale Model (MM5) ...
An Approach to Kinetic Energy Diagnosis of Meso–Synoptic Scale interactions
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: To explicitly describe the energy exchange between meso and synoptic-scale motions, a diagnostic scheme of kinetic energy has been developed. By using a horizontal filtering technique, meteorological variables are separated ...
Modeled Antarctic Precipitation. Part I: Spatial and Temporal Variability
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Surface snow accumulation is the primary mass input to the Antarctic ice sheets. As the dominant term among various components of surface snow accumulation (precipitation, sublimation/deposition, and snow drift), precipitation ...
A Harmonic-Fourier Spectral Limited-Area Model with an External Wind Lateral Boundary Condition
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: In comparison to the Tatsumi?s spectral method, the harmonic-Fourier spectral method has two major advantages. 1) The semi-implicit scheme is quite efficient because the solutions of the Poisson and Helmholtz equations are ...
Omega Diagnosis of a Cold Vortex with Severe Convection
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: A real-time quasi-geostrophic omega diagnostic scheme, based on Hoskins' Q-vector analysis and developed by Barnes, was applied to a cold mesoscale vortex with severe convection over northeast China in summer. The limited ...

Greenland Ice Sheet Surface Air Temperature Variability: 1840–2007
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Meteorological station records and regional climate model output are combined to develop a continuous 168-yr (1840?2007) spatial reconstruction of monthly, seasonal, and annual mean Greenland ice sheet near-surface air ...
Development and Testing of Polar WRF. Part III: Arctic Land
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: A version of the state-of-the-art Weather Research and Forecasting model (WRF) has been developed for use in polar climates. The model known as ?Polar WRF? is tested for land areas with a western Arctic grid that has 25-km ...
Northern Hemisphere Extratropical Turbulent Heat Fluxes in ASRv2 and Global Reanalyses
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: AbstractLarge-scale objectively analyzed gridded products and satellite estimates of sensible (H) and latent (LE) heat fluxes over the extratropical Northern Hemisphere are compared to those derived from the regional Arctic ...
