A Numerical Study of the Stratiform Region of a Fast-Moving Squall Line. Part I: General Description and Water and Heat Budgets
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: A two-dimensional nonhydrostatic cloud model is applied to the simulation of a tropical squall line that occurred on 23 June during the COPT 81 experiment. Owing to the use of an ice parameterization scheme, the simulation ...
A Numerical Study of the Stratiform Region of a Fast-Moving Squall Line. Part II: Relationship between Mass, Pressure, and Momentum Fields
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: In a companion paper, a two-dimensional simulation of a fast-moving tropical squall line was successfully compared to observations performed during the COPT81 experiment over West Africa. The full ice phase parameterization ...
Observation of the Circulation in the Newfoundland Basin in Winter 1997
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: A hydrographic survey was performed in January?February 1997 to document the winter circulation of the North Atlantic Current system in the Newfoundland Basin, as part of the Fronts and Atlantic Storm Tracks Ex-periment ...
Toward a Better Determination of Turbulent Air–Sea Fluxes from Several Experiments
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: An accurate determination of turbulent exchanges between the ocean and the atmosphere is a prerequisite to identify and assess the mechanisms of interaction that control part of the variability in the two media over a wide ...
