Changes in Water Vapor Transport and the Production of Precipitation in the Eastern Fertile Crescent as a Result of Global Warming
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: This study investigates changes in the types of storm events occurring in the Fertile Crescent as a result of global warming. Regional climate model [fifth-generation Pennsylvania State University?National Center for ...
Absorption of Radar Signals by the Atmosphere of Venus
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Attempts to study the radiowave reflection properties of Venus by radar at 3.8 cm wavelength are reviewed. Measurements made by the Lincoln Laboratory during the last three inferior conjunctions place the scattering cross ...
Water Vapor Transport and the Production of Precipitation in the Eastern Fertile Crescent
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The study presented here attempts to quantify the significance of southerly water vapor fluxes on precipitation occurring in the eastern Fertile Crescent region. The water vapor fluxes were investigated at high temporal ...
Comparison of the Structure of the ITCZ in the West Pacific during the Boreal Summers of 1989–93 Using AMIP Simulations and ECMWF Reanalysis
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The dynamic structure and interannual variability of the ITCZ in the western North Pacific and east Asia during the boreal summers of 1989?93 are investigated. European Centre for Medium-Range Weather Forecasts (ECMWF) ...
Radiometric Observations of Liquid Water in Thunderstorm Cells
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: An estimate of the integrated liquid water content along radio rays passing through a thunderstorm has been made by using the thermal emission from the storm at 10.7 GHz. The radiometric data, together with supplementary ...
Quasi-geostrophic Ocean Response to Real Wind Forcing: The Effects of Temporal Smoothing
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: A one-degree, flat bottom, eight-layer quasi-geostrophic model of the North Pacific Ocean is forced by six different wind stress curl datasets, all derived from seven years of twice daily analyses at the European Centre ...
Separation of Warm-Core Rings in the Gulf of Mexico
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The separation of anticyclonic rings is studied using a 12-level primitive equation numerical model of the western North Atlantic. The ?Gulf Stream Formation Region? model is based on the Bryan-Cox-Semtner code, and uses ...
Comparison of In Situ Soil Moisture Measurements: An Examination of the Neutron and Dielectric Measurements within the Illinois Climate Network
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: he continuity of soil moisture time series data is crucial for climatic research. Yet, a common problem for continuous data series is the changing of sensors, not only as replacements are necessary, but as technologies ...
Correlation Between Surface Gulf Stream and Bottom Flow New 5000 Meters Depth
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Spectral analyses of three long-term (8 months), deep (?5 km), current-meter records located on the Scotian Rise (?40°N, 62°W) and a time series of the average northerly position of the surface Gulf Stream System obtained ...
The Impact of Observed Vegetation Changes on Land–Atmosphere Feedbacks During Drought
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: oderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS)-derived vegetation fraction data were used to update the boundary conditions of the advanced research Weather Research and Forecasting (WRF) Model to assess the influence ...
