On the Analysis of Atmospheric and Climatic Time Series
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Linear parametric models are commonly assumed and used for unknown data-generating mechanisms. This study demonstrates the value of inferring statistics of meteorological and climatological time series by using a ...
Estimating Higher-Order Moments of Nonlinear Time Series
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: This study extends the authors? earlier work that addresses the importance of bootstrap methods in computing statistical characteristics of meteorological and climatological datasets. Subsampling confidence intervals for ...
A Definitive Approach to Turbulence Statistical Studies in Planetary Boundary Layers
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: A method for comprehensive statistical data analysis is presented. It includes a procedure for selection of segments within a data record, where data can be considered stationary, allowing the computation of statistical ...
An Interpretation of Atmospheric Low-Order Models
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Low-order models (LOMs) arising in various popular fluid dynamic and atmospheric problems are shown to be equivalent to coupled three-mode nonlinear systems known in mechanics as Volterra gyrostats. The Volterra equations ...
Further Aspects of Large Eddy Simulation Model Statistics and Inconsistencies with Field Data
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: This study has employed the concept of bandpass filtering of aircraft field data that are obtained within convective planetary boundary layers, for the purpose of comparing the characteristic turbulence statistics with the ...
Comments on “Analogies of Ocean/Atmosphere Rotating Fluid Dynamics with Gyroscopes: Teaching Opportunities”
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Improving the Statistical Reliability of Data Analysis from Atmospheric Measurements and Modeling
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Statistical issues of atmospheric data analysis are discussed that address the problem of stationarity and homogeneity of data and the problem of inadequate record lengths. Bandpass filtering of observational data is ...
LES Model Sensitivities to Domains, Grids, and Large-Eddy Timescales
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: This study has addressed the sensitivity of large-eddy simulation (LES) models to domain size, grid resolution, and the number of large-eddy turnover times (t?) of integration, and their respective effects on the characteristic ...
Selection of Modes in Convective Low-Order Models
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The development of physically sound low-order models (LOMs) of convective flow is discussed. LOMs are constructed in the form of coupled three-mode systems known in mechanics as Volterra gyrostats. This structure ensures ...
