Numerical Simulations of Airflow and Cloud Distributions over the Windward Side of the Island of Hawaii. Part II: Nocturnal Flow Regime
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Numerical experiments are performed with the fifth generation Mesoscale Model to study the evolution of island airflow, thermodynamic fields, and clouds over the island of Hawaii at night. The model has successfully simulated ...
Evolution of Katabatic Flow on the Island of Hawaii on 10 August 1990
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The data collected on 10 August 1990 from the Hawaiian Rainband Project were analyzed to study the evolution of katabatic flow. Results from this study show that for a relatively dry case thermal forcing is important to ...
Numerical Simulations of Airflow and Cloud Distributions over the Windward Side of the Island of Hawaii. Part I: The Effects of Trade Wind Inversion
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Initialized by the composite upstream sounding during the Hawaiian Rainband Project, high-resolution numerical experiments are conducted using the Pennsylvania State University?National Center for Atmospheric Research fifth ...
