Grid‐Based Application of Runoff Curve Numbers
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: The development and validation of a methodological approach to predicting runoff over large regions is considered. The Soil Conservation Service (SCS) runoff curve number procedure is modified to allow for areal variation ...
Unavoidable Errors: A Weather Warnings Perspective on Climate Attribution
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
On a Physical Mechanism for Rossby Wave Propagation
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: A simple class of barotropic Rossby waves are shown to propagate westward as the graphically balanced meridional windfield periodically reverses in response to a small meridional pressure gradient arising from the latitudinal ...
Wind Energy Collage
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: All photographs were taken at the Indian Mesa II (now Desert Sky) wind farm near Iraan, Texas. Mesa (according to Webster’s New Collegiate Dictionary) is defined as: a usually isolated hill ...
Improving the Anelastic Approximation
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: A new diagnostic equation is presented which exhibits many advantages over the conventional forms of the anelastic continuity equation. Scale analysis suggests that use of this ?pseudo-incompressible equation? is justified ...
Discussion of “Minimization of Multistage RBC Active Disc Area” by Roland Leduc and Ian Buchanan (March/April, 1993, Vol. 119, No. 2)
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
A Message From the Associate Editor
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Welcome to the third annual special issue on wind energy. I again extend my heartfelt thanks to the authors and reviewers who have made this issue possible. I thought I was really ahead of ...
Pseudomomentum Diagnostics for Two-Dimensional Stratified Compressible Flow
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Expressions are derived for the local pseudomomentum density in two-dimensional compressible stratified flow and are compared with the expressions for pseudomomentum in two-dimensional Boussinesq and anelastic flow derived ...
