The Indian Ocean Sea Surface Temperature Warming Simulated by CMIP5 Models during the Twentieth Century: Competing Forcing Roles of GHGs and Anthropogenic Aerosols
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: he Indian Ocean exhibits a robust basinwide sea surface temperature (SST) warming during the twentieth century that has affected the hydrological cycle, atmospheric circulation, and global climate change. The competing ...
Why Has the Relationship between Indian and Pacific Ocean Decadal Variability Changed in Recent Decades?
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: AbstractBoth the Indian and Pacific Oceans exhibit prominent decadal time scale variations in sea surface temperature (SST), linked dynamically via atmospheric and oceanic processes. However, the relationship between SST ...
The Effects of External Forcing and Internal Variability on the Formation of Interhemispheric Sea Surface Temperature Gradient Trends in the Indian Ocean
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: AbstractA striking trend of the Indian Ocean interhemispheric gradient in sea surface temperatures (SSTs) developed during the recent global warming hiatus. The contributions of external forcing and internal variability ...
Analysis of the Heat Transfer Mechanism in High-Temperature Circulating Fluidized Beds by a Numerical Model
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: A general numerical model is presented here to describe the complex fluid dynamics and the heat transfer process in high-temperature circulating fluidized beds (CFBs). The core-wall concept is ...
Rheological Behavior of Fresh Cement Composites with Graphene Oxide–Coated Silica Fume
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: Although graphene oxide (GO) can be well dispersed in water, it tends to reagglomerate in an alkaline cement hydration environment, thus seriously degrading the workability and mechanical strength of the mixture. This study ...
Mechanisms for an Amplified Precipitation Seasonal Cycle in the U.S. West Coast under Global Warming
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: AbstractThe mean precipitation along the U.S. West Coast exhibits a pronounced seasonality change under warming. Here we explore the characteristics of the seasonality change and investigate the underlying mechanisms, with ...
Roles of SST versus Internal Atmospheric Variability in Winter Extreme Precipitation Variability along the U.S. West Coast
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: AbstractThe U.S. West Coast exhibits large variability of extreme precipitation during the boreal winter season (December?February). Understanding the large-scale forcing of such variability is important for improving ...
Road Performance Analysis of Cement-Asphalt Emulsion Mixtures Incorporating Different Cementitious Fillers
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: Portland cement (PC) has been successfully used as an admixture in cement asphalt emulsion mixtures (CAEMs) to improve their early-age strength. However, the excessive use of PC significantly influences the environment. ...
Uncertainty in the Past and Future Changes of Tropical Pacific SST Zonal Gradient: Internal Variability versus Model Spread
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Aggregate Coated with Carbon Nanotube–Polymer Composites for Smart Asphalt Mixtures with Different Aggregate Gradations
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: The introduction of carbon-based nanomaterials (CNMs) such as graphite powder, carbon nanotubes (CNTs), and graphene directly into asphalt mixtures offers a theoretical feasibility for increasing their electrical and thermal ...
