Exploratory Analysis of the Difference between Temperature Observations Recorded by ASOS and Conventional Methods
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The Automated Surface Observing System is currently replacing conventional observations at the National Weather Service, the Federal Aviation Administration, and other stations that report hourly observations. From a ...
Effects of the El Chichon Volcanic Cloud on Direct and Diffuse Solar Irradiances
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Direct normal and diffuse solar irradiances and 500 nm aerosol optical depths measured at the University of Michigan departed far from normal on 26 October 1982, when it is concluded that the main stratospheric cloud from ...
A New Technique to Estimate Sensible Heat Fluxes around Micrometeorological Towers Using Small Unmanned Aircraft Systems
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: AbstractUpscaling point measurements from micrometeorological towers is a challenging task that is important for a variety of applications, for example, in process studies of convection initiation, carbon and energy budget ...
A Comparison of the U.S. Climate Reference Network Precipitation Data to the Parameter-Elevation Regressions on Independent Slopes Model (PRISM)
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
A Comparative Study of ASOS and USCRN Temperature Measurements
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Temperature measurements from the U.S. Climate Reference Network (USCRN) instrument system were compared to the Automated Surface Observing System (ASOS) ambient air temperature measurements and were examined under different ...
An Improved Trajectory Model to Evaluate the Collection Performance of Snow Gauges
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: ecent studies have used numerical models to estimate the collection efficiency of solid precipitation gauges when exposed to the wind in both shielded and unshielded configurations. The models used computational fluid ...
Evaluation of the High-Resolution Rapid Refresh (HRRR) Model Using Near-Surface Meteorological and Flux Observations from Northern Alabama
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: AbstractThe High-Resolution Rapid Refresh (HRRR) model became operational at the National Centers for Environmental Prediction (NCEP) in 2014 but the HRRR?s performance over certain regions of the coterminous United States ...
The Use of Small Uncrewed Aircraft System Observations in Meteorological and Dispersion Modeling
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
U.S. Climate Reference Network after One Decade of Operations: Status and Assessment
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: 2012 marks a decade of observations undertaken by the U.S. Climate Reference Network (USCRN) under the auspices of NOAA's National Climatic Data Center and Atmospheric Turbulence and Diffusion Division. The network consists ...
