RISAn Objective Method for the Identification of the Intertropical Convergence Zone
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: A simple objective method for delineation of the ITCZ from daily 2.5 degree data on satellite measured outgoing longwave radiation and albedo is described. The method involves identification of grid points with a large ...
On the Maximum Cloud Zone and the ITCZ over Indian, Longitudes during the Southwest Monsoon
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: An investigation is presented of the daily variation of the maximum cloud zone (MCZ) and the 7W mb trough in the Northern Hemisphere over the Indian longitudes 70?90°E during April?October for 1973?77. It is found that ...
Systematic Bias in the NOAA Outgoing Longwave Radiation Dataset?
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The outgoing longwave radiation (OLR) fluxes derived from NOAA-SR (1974?78) are found to he consistently higher than those from NOAA-7 (1982 onward) over a large part of the tropical belt. Analysis of the variation of the ...
Multimodel Ensemble Forecasts for Weather and Seasonal Climate
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: In this paper the performance of a multimodel ensemble forecast analysis that shows superior forecast skills is illustrated and compared to all individual models used. The model comparisons include global weather, hurricane ...
