Abstract: Fire weather stations used to be located only where observers were available. Now, remote automatic weather stations can sample weather without manual assistance, virtually anywhere, Locating them, however, remains a ...

Abstract: The high-resolution (1.5 km) nonhydrostatic fifth-generation Pennsylvania State University?National Center for Atmospheric Research (PSU?NCAR) Mesoscale Model (MM5) and an advanced land surface model (LSM) are used to study ...

Abstract: The fifth-generation Pennsylvania State University?NCAR Mesoscale Model (MM5)/land surface model (LSM) is used to simulate the diurnal island-scale circulations over the island of Hawaii during the Hawaiian Rainband Project ...

Abstract: Santa Ana winds (SAW) are synoptically driven mesoscale winds observed in Southern California usually during late fall and winter. Because of the complex topography of the region, SAW episodes can sometimes be extremely ...

Abstract: The leeside circulations and weather of the island of Hawaii were studied from the fifth-generation Pennsylvania State University?NCAR Mesoscale Model (MM5) land surface model simulations for eight strong (?7.9 m s?1) and ...

Abstract: The Scripps Experimental Climate Prediction Center (ECPC) has been making experimental, near?real?time seasonal global forecasts since 26 September 1997 with the NCEP global spectral model used for the reanalysis. Images ...
