An Investigation of a Commercial Aircraft Encounter with Severe Clear-Air Turbulence over Western Greenland
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: his study presents digital flight data recorder (DFDR) analyses and high-resolution numerical simulations relevant to a severe clear-air turbulence (CAT) encounter over western Greenland by a Boeing 777 aircraft at 10-km ...
A New Mixing-Length Formulation for the Parameterization of Dry Convection: Implementation and Evaluation in a Mesoscale Model
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: A realistic representation of the evolution of the dry convective boundary layer in mesoscale and large-scale atmospheric models has been an elusive goal for many years. In this paper the performance of a new mixing-length ...
An Intercomparison of Model-Predicted Wave Breaking for the 11 January 1972 Boulder Windstorm
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Two-dimensional simulations of the 11 January 1972 Boulder, Colorado, windstorm, obtained from 11 diverse nonhydrostatic models, are intercompared with special emphasis on the turbulent breakdown of topographically forced ...
