Comparing CAM5 and Superparameterized CAM5 Simulations of Summer Precipitation Characteristics over Continental East Asia: Mean State, Frequency–Intensity Relationship, Diurnal Cycle, and Influencing Factors
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: umerical experiments are conducted to investigate the differences between summer precipitation over continental East Asia simulated by the Community Atmosphere Model, version 5 (CAM5), and superparameterized CAM5 (SPCAM5, ...
Vertical Structures and Physical Properties of the Cold-Season Stratus Clouds Downstream of the Tibetan Plateau: Differences between Daytime and Nighttime
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: his study compares the daytime?nighttime (DN) differences in the occurrence frequencies and macrophysical, microphysical, and radiative vertical structures of the single-layer stratus clouds downstream of the Tibetan Plateau ...
Simulations of Stratus Clouds over Eastern China in CAM5: Sensitivity to Horizontal Resolution
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: his paper evaluates the simulations of stratus clouds over eastern China (EC) in the Community Atmosphere Model, version 5 (CAM5), with an emphasis on the impact of changing horizontal resolutions on the performance. CAM5 ...
The Definition and Characteristics of Regional Rainfall Events Demonstrated by Warm Season Precipitation over the Beijing Plain
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: n this study, a regional rainfall event (RRE) is defined by observed rainfall at multiple, well-distributed stations in a given area. Meanwhile, a regional rainfall coefficient (RRC), which could be used to classify local ...
Simulations of Stratus Clouds over Eastern China in CAM5: Sources of Errors
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: previous study by Zhang et al. suggested two biases of the high-resolution configured Community Atmosphere Model, version 5 (CAM5), in simulating stratus clouds over eastern China, including an underestimation of stratus ...
Summer Precipitation Frequency, Intensity, and Diurnal Cycle over China: A Comparison of Satellite Data with Rain Gauge Observations
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Hourly or 3-hourly precipitation data from Precipitation Estimation from Remotely Sensed Information using Artificial Neural Networks (PERSIANN) and Tropical Rainfall Measuring Mission (TRMM) 3B42 satellite products and ...
Subseasonal Characteristics of Diurnal Variation in Summer Monsoon Rainfall over Central Eastern China
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Subseasonal characteristics of the diurnal variation of the summer monsoon rainfall over central eastern China (25°?40°N, 110°?120°E) are analyzed using hourly station rain gauge data. Results show that the rainfall in the ...
Why Nocturnal Long-Duration Rainfall Presents an Eastward-Delayed Diurnal Phase of Rainfall down the Yangtze River Valley
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Hourly observational records and 6-hourly reanalysis data were used to investigate the influences of large-scale forcings on the diurnal variation of summer rainfall along the Yangtze River (YR). The results show that ...
Changes in Characteristics of Late-Summer Precipitation over Eastern China in the Past 40 Years Revealed by Hourly Precipitation Data
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Using hourly station rain gauge data during 1966?2005, the authors studied changes in the characteristics of the late-summer (July?August) rainfall, which has exhibited a so-called southern flooding and northern drought ...
Changes in Duration-Related Characteristics of Late-Summer Precipitation over Eastern China in the Past 40 Years
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: uration is a key feature of rainfall events that is closely related to rainfall mechanisms and influences. This study analyzes the decadal change in the duration-related characteristics of late-summer (July?August) ...
