RISThe Operational Complex Quality Control of Radiosonde Heights and Temperatures at the National Centers for Environmental Prediction. Part I: Description of the Method
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The quality control of meteorological data has always been an important, if not always fully appreciated, step in the use of the data for analysis and forecasting. In most quality-control approaches, erroneous data are ...
The Operational Complex Quality Control of Radiosonde Heights and Temperatures at the National Centers for Environmental Prediction. Part II: Examples of Error Diagnosis and Correction from Operational Use
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The method of complex quality control of radiosonde heights and temperatures (CQCHT) has been under continuous development and improvement at the National Centers for Environmental Prediction since 1988. Part I of this ...
A Comparison of Explicit and Semi-Implicit Model Calculations of Geostrophic Adjustment
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The adjustment properties of numerical models are important both from the Point of view of the handling of noise and the ability to produce proper quasi-geostrophic states from physically derived imbalances between mass ...
Complex Quality Control of Significant Level Rawinsonde Temperatures
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Rawinsonde heights and temperatures have been quality controlled using complex quality control at the National Centers for Atmospheric Prediction since December 1988 when an algorithm using only hydrostatic checking was ...
OPERATIONAL-EXPERIMENTAL NUMERICAL FORECASTING FOR THE TROPICS
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: A primitive equation barotropic forecast model is employed independently at 700 mb. and 300 mb. to produce a wind forecast to 36 hr. once daily (from 1200 gmt real data analyses) for the entire tropical belt between 48°N. ...
Comprehensive Hydrostatic Quality Control at the National Meteorological Center
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The Comprehensive Hydrostatic Quality Control (CHQC) of rawinsonde data on height and temperature at mandatory isobaric surfaces designed and implemented at the National Meteorological Center in Washington is described in ...
AN OPERATIONAL TROPICAL ANALYSIS SYSTEM
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: This paper presents the results of 5 months of an experimental operational tropical analysis scheme. The grid is a 5° of longitude square on a Mercator map. The array size is 72?23 or approximately 48°N. to 48°S. completely ...
Two Years of Operational Comprehensive Hydrostatic Quality Control at the National Meteorological Center
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: A comprehensive hydrostatic quality control (CHQC) procedure for rawinsonde heights and temperatures was implemented into operational use at the National Meteorological Center (NMC) in December 1988. The CHQC uses a ...
A Comparison of Winds Observed at Christmas Island using a Wind-Profiling Doppler Radar with NMC and ECMWF Analyses
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Wind profilers can provide useful wind data from remote regions of the globe, and incorporation of upper-level wind profiler data into analysis products can significantly improve the quality of analyses in data sparse ...
U.S. Climate Reference Network Soil Moisture and Temperature Observations
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: he U.S. Climate Reference Network (USCRN) is a network of climate-monitoring stations maintained and operated by the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) to provide climate-science-quality measurements ...
