The Influence of Atmospheric Stability on Potential Evaporation
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The Penman relationship for potential evaporation is modified to simply include the influence of atmospheric stability on turbulent transport of water vapor. Explicit expressions for the stability-dependent, surface exchange ...
Note on “Daytime Evolution of Relative Humidity at the Boundary Layer Top”
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Modifications to the formulations in the recently published paper by Ek and Mahrt are presented. One table and three figures in that paper have also been revised.
Surface Water and Energy Budgets for the Mississippi River Basin in Three NCEP Reanalyses
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: urface water and energy budgets from the National Centers for Environmental Prediction?U.S. Department of Energy (NCEP?DOE) Atmospheric Model Intercomparison Project (AMIP-II) Global Reanalysis 2 (GR2), the North American ...
Convective Planetary Boundary Layer Interactions with the Land Surface at Diurnal Time Scales: Diagnostics and Feedbacks
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The convective planetary boundary layer (PBL) integrates surface fluxes and conditions over regional and diurnal scales. As a result, the structure and evolution of the PBL contains information directly related to land ...
Untitled
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: AbstractThis study examines the performance of the NCEP Global Forecast System (GFS) surface layer parameterization scheme for strongly stable conditions over land in which turbulence is weak or even disappears because of ...
Summer-Season Forecast Experiments with the NCEP Climate Forecast System Using Different Land Models and Different Initial Land States
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: o examine the impact from land model upgrades and different land initializations on the National Centers for Environmental Prediction (NCEP)?s Climate Forecast System (CFS), extensive T126 CFS experiments are carried out ...
Evaluation of Land–Atmosphere Coupling Processes and Climatological Bias in the UFS Global Coupled Model
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Automated Quality Control of In Situ Soil Moisture from the North American Soil Moisture Database Using NLDAS-2 Products
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: he North American Soil Moisture Database (NASMD) was initiated in 2011 to provide support for developing climate forecasting tools, calibrating land surface models, and validating satellite-derived soil moisture algorithms. ...
Assessing Impacts of Integrating MODIS Vegetation Data in the Weather Research and Forecasting (WRF) Model Coupled to Two Different Canopy-Resistance Approaches
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: he impact of 8-day-averaged data from the Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS) sensor?namely, the 1-km leaf area index, absorbed photosynthetic radiation, and land-use data?is investigated for use in the ...
Noah LSM Snow Model Diagnostics and Enhancements
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: A negative snow water equivalent (SWE) bias in the snow model of the Noah land surface scheme used in the NCEP suite of numerical weather and climate prediction models has been noted by several investigators. This bias ...
