RISThe Origin of Monsoons
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The monsoon is interpreted as an intertropical convergence zone (ITCZ) substantially away (more than 10°) from the equator and the existence of the ITCZ does not have to rely on land?sea contrast. Land?sea contrast can ...
Multiple Quasi Equilibria of the ITCZ and the Origin of Monsoon Onset. Part II: Rotational ITCZ Attractors
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Chao's numerical and theoretical work on multiple quasi equilibria of the intertropical convergence zone (ITCZ) and the origin of monsoon onset is extended to solve two additional puzzles. One is the highly nonlinear ...
The Role of Surface Friction in Tropical Intraseasonal Oscillation
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The role of surface friction in the tropical intraseasonal oscillation, or the Madden?Julian oscillation (MJO), is investigated by comparing two 4-yr integrations with the Goddard atmospheric general circulation model: one ...
Frequency Distribution of Daily ITCZ Patterns over the Western–Central Pacific
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: This study attempts to explore a comprehensive and compact approach for delineating the multiscale and multivariate characteristics of the ITCZ over the western?central Pacific based on daily satellite observations of ...
The Madden–Julian Oscillation Observed during the TOGA COARE IOP: Global View
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: During the TOGA COARE Intensive Observing Period (November 1992?February 1993), two pronounced Madden?Julian oscillation (MJO) events associated with super cloud clusters and westerly wind bursts were observed. This paper ...
Multiscale Temporal Mean Features of Perturbation Kinetic Energy and Its Budget in the Tropics: Review and Computation
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: he authors examined the maintenance mechanisms of perturbation kinetic energy (PKE) in the tropical regions for multiple time scales by computing and analyzing its budget equation. The emphasis has been placed on the mean ...
Operational Precipitation Forecast over China Using the Weather Research and Forecasting (WRF) Model at a Gray-Zone Resolution: Impact of Convection Parameterization
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Evaluation and Comparison of Two Deep Convection Parameterization Schemes at Convection-Permitting Resolution
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Comparison of the Vertical Distributions of Cloud Properties from Idealized Extratropical Deep Convection Simulations Using Various Horizontal Resolutions
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: ABSTRACTThe authors coarse-grained and analyzed the output from a large-eddy simulation (LES) of an idealized extratropical supercell storm using the Weather Research and Forecasting (WRF) Model with various horizontal ...
A Three-Dimensional Scale-Adaptive Turbulent Kinetic Energy Scheme in the WRF-ARW Model
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: AbstractA new three-dimensional (3D) turbulent kinetic energy (TKE) subgrid mixing scheme is developed using the Advanced Research version of the Weather Research and Forecasting (WRF) Model (WRF-ARW) to address the gray-zone ...
