RISEffects of Abstraction on Selecting Relevant Biological Phenomena for Biomimetic Design
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The naturallanguage approach to identifying biological analogies exploits the existing format of much biological knowledge, beyond databases created for biomimetic design. However, designers may need to select analogies ...
Convective Coupling in Tropical-Depression-Type Waves. Part I: Rainfall Characteristics and Moisture Structure
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Tropical-depression (TD)-type waves are synoptic-scale disturbances embedded with deep convection over the western North Pacific. Studies of these disturbances began over six decades ago; however, some properties of these ...
Convective Coupling in Tropical-Depression-Type Waves. Part II: Moisture and Moist Static Energy Budgets
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The companion of this paper, Part I, discovered the characteristics of the rainfall progression in tropical-depression (TD)-type waves over the western North Pacific. In Part II, the large-scale controls on the convective ...
Impact of Two Types of El Niño on Tropical Cyclones over the Western North Pacific: Sensitivity to Location and Intensity of Pacific Warming
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: AbstractThe present study investigates the impact of various central Pacific (CP) and eastern Pacific (EP) warming on tropical cyclones (TCs) over the western North Pacific (WNP) for the period 1948?2015 based on observational ...
An Analysis of the Reliability of a New Dataset of Transmission Line Icing Thickness in Southern China
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Based on ERA-Interim data, gauge observations, transmission line icing observational data, and hindcasted predictors from a numerical forecast system of transmission line icing, a new transmission line icing thickness ...
Synoptic-Scale Waves in Sheared Background Flow over the Western North Pacific
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: ropical depression (TD)-type waves are the dominant mode of synoptic-scale fluctuations over the western North Pacific. By applying spatiotemporal filters to the observed OLR data and the NCEP?DOE AMIP-II reanalysis data ...
