Abstract: One of the goals of the East Pacific Investigation of Climate, year 2001 process study (EPIC2001), was to understand the mechanisms controlling the forcing of deep atmospheric convection over the tropical eastern Pacific. ...

Abstract: lobal climate models are challenged to represent the North American monsoon, in terms of its climatology and interannual variability. To investigate whether a regional atmospheric model can improve warm season forecasts ...

Abstract: lmost one-half of the annual precipitation in the southwestern United States occurs during the North American monsoon (NAM). Given favorable synoptic-scale conditions, organized monsoon thunderstorms may affect relatively ...

Abstract: his study presents climate change results from the North American Regional Climate Change Assessment Program (NARCCAP) suite of dynamically downscaled simulations for the North American monsoon system in the southwestern ...

Abstract: AbstractThe western United States was affected by several megadroughts during the last 1200 years, most prominently during the Medieval Climate Anomaly (MCA; 800 to 1300 CE). A null hypothesis is developed to test the ...

Abstract: Climate models consistently project a significant drying in the Caribbean during climate change, and between 2013–2016 the region experienced the worst multi-year drought in the historical period. Although dynamical ...

Abstract: AbstractThe western United States was affected by several megadroughts during the last 1200 years, most prominently during the Medieval Climate Anomaly (MCA; 800 to 1300 CE). A null hypothesis is developed to test the ...

Abstract: eather radar networks are indispensable tools for forecasting and disaster prevention in industrialized countries. However, they are far less common in countries of South America, which frequently suffer from an underdeveloped ...
