Abstract: A two-level, global, spectral model is used to study the response of the atmosphere to sea surface temperature anomalies. Two sea surface temperature anomaly patterns are investigated. The first, called the El Niño pattern ...

Abstract: Large errors in atmospheric boundary layer (ABL) simulations can be caused by inaccuracies in the specification of surface characteristics in addition to assumptions and simplifications made in boundary layer formulations ...

Abstract: Objective analysis and diagnostic methods are used to provide hourly meteorological fields to many air quality simulation models. The viability of using predictions from the Pennsylvania State University?National Center ...

Abstract: Based on the need for advanced treatments of high-resolution urban morphological features (e.g., buildings and trees) in meteorological, dispersion, air quality, and human-exposure modeling systems for future urban ...
