A Precipitation Climatology of 5-Day Periods
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: A precipitation climatology has been developed for the relative frequencies of zero, one, or two or more days with measurable precipitation within 5-day periods. In addition, the distribution of precipitation amounts is ...
The Impact of Pacific Ocean Subsurface Data on Operational Prediction of Tropical Pacific SST at the NCEP
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The value of assimilated subsurface oceanic data to statistical predictions of interannual variability of sea surface temperature (SST) at the National Centers for Environmental Prediction (NCEP) is shown. Subsurface ...
Evaluation of the IRI'S “Net Assessment” Seasonal Climate Forecasts: 1997–2001
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The International Research Institute for Climate Prediction (IRI) net assessment seasonal temperature and precipitation forecasts are evaluated for the 4-yr period from October?December 1997 to October?December 2001. These ...
A Further Assessment of Treatment Effects in the Florida Area Cumulus Experiment through Guided Linear Modeling
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The Florida Area Cumulus Experiment (FACE) was a two-stage program dedicated to assessing the potential of ?dynamic seeding? for enhancing convective rainfall in a fixed target area. FACE-1 (1970?76) was an exploratory ...
Multiscale Variability in North American Summer Maximum Temperatures and Modulations from the North Atlantic Simulated by an AGCM
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: AbstractSix recurrent thermal regimes are identified over continental North America from June to September through a k-means clustering applied to daily maximum temperature simulated by ECHAM5 forced by historical SSTs for ...
