Marine Boundary-layer Structure and Circulation in the Region of Offshore Redevelopment of a Cyclone during GALE
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Marine boundary-layer structure and circulation is documented for the 24 February 1986 case of offshore redevelopment of a cyclone during the Genesis of Atlantic Lows Experiment (GALE) Intensive Observing Period (IOP) 9. ...
Urban Canopy Modeling of the New York City Metropolitan Area: A Comparison and Validation of Single- and Multilayer Parameterizations
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: High-resolution numerical simulations are conducted using the Coupled Ocean?Atmosphere Mesoscale Prediction System (COAMPS)1 with two different urban canopy parameterizations for a 23-day period in August 2005 for the New ...
Observations of the Mean and Turbulence Structure of the Marine Boundary Layer over the Bay of Bengal during MONEX 79
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Radiosondes from Soviet ships along with dropsondes and mean and turbulence data from the National Center for Atmospheric Research (NCAR) Electra gust probe aircraft are analyzed to infer the structure of the monsoon marine ...
Three-Dimensional Mean and Turbulence Structure of a Coastal Front Influenced by the Gulf Stream
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The interaction of oceanic fronts in the vicinity of the Gulf Stream with an atmospheric coastal front during the Genesis of Atlantic Lows Experiment (GALE) is examined using aircraft, satellite, and ship data. The nearshore, ...
Impact of Assimilating SSM/I Rainfall Rates on Numerical Prediction of Winter Cyclones
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: A series of observing system simulation experiments (OSSE) and real data assimilation experiments were conducted to assess the impact of assimilating Special Sensor Microwave/Imager (SSM/I)-estimated rainfall rates on ...
A Numerical Investigation of the Effects of Timing of Diabatic Processes in the Coastal Cyclogenesis of GALE IOP 2
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Sensitivity of coastal cyclogenesis to the effects of timing of diabatic processes is investigated using the Naval Research Laboratory mesoscale model. Numerical experiments were conducted to examine the sensitivity of the ...
Evolution of a Marine Boundary-Layer Jet
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: High-resolution profiles of temperature and wind-speed measurements were made with a tethered baloon in and above the marine boundary layer at San Nicolas Island (SNI) during a period when the cloud-free boundary layer ...
Atmospheric Response to Local Upwelling in the Vicinity of New York–New Jersey Harbor
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Multiply nested urbanized mesoscale model [Coupled Ocean?Atmosphere Mesoscale Prediction System (COAMPS)] simulations of the New York?New Jersey metropolitan region are conducted for 4?11 July 2004. The simulations differ ...
A Numerical Study of the ERICA IOP 4 Marine Cyclone
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: A numerical study is conducted using the Naval Research Laboratory (NRL) limited-area model to study the evolution and structure of a rapidly intensifying marine cyclone observed during intensive observing period 4 (IOP ...
Numerical Simulation of a Low-Level Jet over Complex Terrain in Southern Iran
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The Lut Desert of Iran is an elongated valley oriented north-northwest to south-southeast. The valley descends southward to the Jaz Murian dry lake through a pass. The Navy?s Coupled Ocean?Atmosphere Mesoscale Prediction ...
