U.S. West Coast Surface Heat Fluxes, Wind Stress, and Wind Stress Curl from a Mesoscale Model
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Monthly averages of numerical model fields are beneficial for depicting patterns in surface forcing such as sensible and latent heat fluxes, wind stress, and wind stress curl over data-sparse ocean regions. Grid resolutions ...
Island Wake Dynamics and Wake Influence on the Evaporation Duct and Radar Propagation
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The conditions under which atmospheric island wakes form leeward of Kauai, Hawaii, are investigated using idealized numerical simulations and real data forecasts from the U.S. Navy's Coupled Ocean?Atmosphere Mesoscale ...
A New Mixing-Length Formulation for the Parameterization of Dry Convection: Implementation and Evaluation in a Mesoscale Model
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: A realistic representation of the evolution of the dry convective boundary layer in mesoscale and large-scale atmospheric models has been an elusive goal for many years. In this paper the performance of a new mixing-length ...
The Tropical Air–Sea Propagation Study (TAPS)
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: he purpose of the Tropical Air?Sea Propagation Study (TAPS), which was conducted during November?December 2013, was to gather coordinated atmospheric and radio frequency (RF) data, offshore of northeastern Australia, in ...
