A Polygon-Based Line-Integral Method for Calculating Vorticity, Divergence, and Deformation from Nonuniform Observations
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: raditional observational analysis of derivative-based variables (e.g., vorticity) usually relies on interpolating observations and evaluating spatial derivatives either on a Cartesian grid or on a spherical grid. Great ...
The Evolution of Dropsonde-Derived Kinematic and Thermodynamic Structures in Developing and Nondeveloping Atlantic Tropical Convective Systems
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: he processes by which tropical cyclones evolve from loosely organized convective clusters are still poorly understood. Because of the data-sparse regions in which tropical cyclones form, observational studies of tropical ...
The Impact of a Midlevel Dry Airflow Layer on Deep Convection in the Pre-Gabrielle (2013) Tropical Disturbance on 4–5 September
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Evaluation of SWER(Ze) Relationships by Precipitation Imaging Package (PIP) during ICE-POP 2018
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
An Objective Algorithm for Detecting and Tracking Tropical Cloud Clusters: Implications for Tropical Cyclogenesis Prediction
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: n algorithm to detect and track global tropical cloud clusters (TCCs) is presented. TCCs are organized large areas of convection that form over warm tropical waters. TCCs are important because they are the ?seedlings? that ...
Reducing Errors in Velocity-Azimuth Display (VAD) Wind and Deformation Retrievals from Airborne Doppler Radars in Convective Environments
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The present study describes methods to reduce the uncertainty of velocity-azimuth display (VAD) wind and deformation retrievals from downward-pointing, conically-scanning, airborne Doppler radars. These retrievals have ...
Evaluation of SWER(Ze) Relationships by Precipitation Imaging Package (PIP) during ICE-POP 2018
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Retrieval of Normalized Gamma Size Distribution Parameters Using Precipitation Imaging Package (PIP) Snowfall Observations during ICE-POP 2018
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Tropical Cloud Cluster Climatology, Variability, and Genesis Productivity
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: ropical cloud clusters (TCCs) are traditionally defined as synoptic-scale areas of deep convection and associated cirrus outflow. They play a critical role in the energy balance of the tropics, releasing large amounts of ...
