RISUrban Heat Island Modeling in Conjunction with Satellite-Derived Surface/Soil Parameters
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Although it has been studied for over 160 years, the urban heat island (UHI) effect is still not completely understood, yet it is increasingly important. The main purpose of this work is to improve UHI modeling by using ...
Far-Field Simulation of the Hawaiian Wake: Sea Surface Temperature and Orographic Effects
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Recent satellite observations reveal far-reaching effects of the Hawaiian Islands on surface wind, cloud, ocean current, and sea surface temperature (SST) that extend leeward over an unusually long distance (>1000 km). A ...
The Thermal Wake of Kauai Island: Satellite Observations and Numerical Simulations
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Island thermal effects on the trail cloud band over the central North Pacific are investigated for the lee of Hawaii using satellite observations and a regional atmospheric model. The trail cloud band develops around noon ...
Response of the South Asian Summer Monsoon to Global Warming: Mean and Synoptic Systems
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Recent diagnostics with the Geophysical Fluid Dynamics Laboratory Climate Model, version 2.1 (GFDL CM2.1), coupled model?s twentieth-century simulations reveal that this particular model demonstrates skill in capturing the ...
Potential Impact of the Tropical Indian Ocean–Indonesian Seas on El Niño Characteristics
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Diagnostics performed with twentieth-century (1861?2000) ensemble integrations of the Geophysical Fluid Dynamics Laboratory Climate Model, version 2.1 (CM2.1) suggest that, during the developing phase, El Niño events that ...
ENSO-Induced Teleconnection: Process-Oriented Diagnostics to Assess Rossby Wave Sources and Ambient Flow Properties in Climate Models
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Global Warming Shifts the Monsoon Circulation, Drying South Asia
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: onsoon rainfall over South Asia has decreased during the last 5 to 6 decades according to several sets of observations. Although sea surface temperature (SST) has risen across the Indo-Pacific warm pool during this period, ...

Indian Ocean Capacitor Effect on Indo–Western Pacific Climate during the Summer following El Niño
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Significant climate anomalies persist through the summer (June?August) after El Niño dissipates in spring over the equatorial Pacific. They include the tropical Indian Ocean (TIO) sea surface temperature (SST) warming, ...
Indian Ocean Dipole Response to Global Warming: Analysis of Ocean–Atmospheric Feedbacks in a Coupled Model
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Low-frequency modulation and change under global warming of the Indian Ocean dipole (IOD) mode are investigated with a pair of multicentury integrations of a coupled ocean?atmosphere general circulation model: one under ...
