Assimilation of Satellite Lightning Data in a Storm-Scale Numerical Weather Prediction System Using a 3D-EnVar Data Assimilation Scheme
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Anomalously Low Negative Cloud-to-Ground Lightning Flash Rates in Intense Convective Storms Observed during STERAO-A
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Concurrent measurements from the CSU-CHILL multiparameter Doppler radar, the Office National d?Etudes et de Recherches Aérospatiales VHF lightning interferometer, and the National Lightning Detection Network, obtained ...
Radiative Transfer Simulations Using Mesoscale Cloud Model Outputs: Comparisons with Passive Microwave and Infrared Satellite Observations for Midlatitudes
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Real midlatitude meteorological cases are simulated over western Europe with the cloud mesoscale model Méso-NH, and the outputs are used to calculate brightness temperatures at microwave frequencies with the Atmospheric ...
A Midlatitude Precipitating Cloud Database Validated with Satellite Observations
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The simulations of five midlatitude precipitating events by the nonhydrostatic mesoscale model Méso-NH are analyzed. These cases cover contrasted precipitation situations from 30° to 60°N, which are typical of midlatitudes. ...
Detecting Clouds Associated with Jet Engine Ice Crystal Icing
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: In the past two decades, more than 150 jet engine power-loss and damage events have been attributed to a phenomenon known as ice crystal icing (ICI). Ingestion of large numbers of ice particles into the engine core are ...
HyMeX-SOP1: The Field Campaign Dedicated to Heavy Precipitation and Flash Flooding in the Northwestern Mediterranean
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: erranean region is frequently affected by heavy precipitation events associated with flash floods, landslides, and mudslides that cause hundreds of millions of euros in damages per year and, often, casualties. A major field ...
