An Average Correlation Coefficient
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: It is proposed that when a dependent variate y is classified into N sets of values with different predictive statistical relations for each classification, the associated correlation coefficients rn (n = 1 ? N) can be ...
A DEMONSTRATION OF FRONTS AND FRONTAL WAVES IN ATMOSPHERIC MODELS
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The remarkable similarity between the motions in a heated rotating tank of water (dishpan experiments) and the large-scale motions of the atmosphere has raised the question of the similarity of the details of the motion. ...
Instability of the Stratified Ekman Boundary Layer and the Generation of Internal Waves
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: With stable density stratification the shear-flow instability of the Ekman boundary layer exhibits two distinct regimes. At low values of a Richardson number the growth rate of instability, at specified Reynolds number, ...
Statistical Corrections to Numerical Prediction Equations
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: A procedure for statistical correction of numerical prediction equations at the end of each predictive time step is described and tested with a one-dimensional prediction model. The model equation is a modified Burgers ...
Statistical Corrections to Numerical Predictions. Part IV
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The NMC Barotropic-Mesh Model has been used to test a statistical correction procedure, designated as M-II, that was developed in Schemm et al. In the present application, statistical corrections at 12 h resulted in ...
Statistical Corrections to Numerical Prediction Equations. II
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: A procedure for statistical correction of numerical prediction equations at the end of each predictive time step is described and tested with a two-dimensional prediction model. The model equations are modified Burgers' ...
The Roles of Langmuir Circulations in the Dispersion of Surface Tracers
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: A hierarchy of theoretical and numerical models for the dispersion of discrete floating tracers on lakes and oceans is presented. Central to these models is the role of Langmuir circulations, which concentrate tracers into ...
A Note on the Statistical Correction of Prediction Equations
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Two modifications of the procedure for applying statistical corrections to the prediction equations discussed in Faller and Schemm (1977) are considered. In the first, the constant terms which normally appear in the ...
A Numerical Study of the Instability of the Laminar Ekman Boundary Layer
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: This study is concerned with the instability of laminar Ekman flow which is characteristic of boundary-layer flows in rotating systems of many kinds. By numerical integration of the equations of motion we have obtained ...
