The Formation of Small-Scale Atmospheric Vortices via Baroclinic Horizontal Shearing Instability
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: his study presents a series of idealized simulations that attempt to replicate shear zones typical of drylines and other near-surface boundaries in the presence of horizontal virtual density gradients. The series of dry ...
The Formation of Small-Scale Atmospheric Vortices via Horizontal Shearing Instability
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: otivated by high-resolution observations of small-scale atmospheric vortices along near-surface boundaries, this study presents a series of idealized simulations that attempt to replicate shear zones typical of drylines ...
A Multiscale Observational Case Study of the Development of an Isolated High Plains Tornadic Supercell
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: On 21 May 1995, a strong tornado developed with an isolated supercell in southwestern Nebraska. Large-scale conditions were not supportive of a tornadic thunderstorm outbreak; however, evidence suggests significant mesoscale ...
A Lagrangian Objective Analysis Technique for Assimilating In Situ Observations with Multiple-Radar-Derived Airflow
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: A new Lagrangian analysis technique is developed to assimilate in situ boundary layer measurements using multi-Doppler-derived wind fields, providing output fields of water vapor mixing ratio, potential temperature, and ...
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 ...
Application of Bulk Richardson Parameterizations of Surface Fluxes to Heterogeneous Land Surfaces
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
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
The Dryline on 22 May 2002 during IHOP: Ground-Radar and In Situ Data Analyses of the Dryline and Boundary Layer Evolution
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: On the afternoon and evening of 22 May 2002, high-resolution observations of the boundary layer (BL) and a dryline were obtained in the eastern Oklahoma and Texas panhandles during the International H2O Project. Using ...
Simulation of Dryline Misovortex Dynamics and Cumulus Formation
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: dryline and misocyclones have been simulated in a cloud-resolving model by applying specified initial and time-dependent lateral boundary conditions obtained from analyses of the 22 May 2002 International H2O Project ...
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 ...
