The Effects of Evaporation on Frontal Circulations
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The condensation of water vapor in the ascent region of frontal zones has been shown by many studies to increase substantially the rate of frontogenesis. Phase change of water substance in the downdraft has, however, ...
Sensitivity of Surface Ozone Simulation to Cumulus Parameterization
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Different cumulus schemes cause significant discrepancies in simulated precipitation, cloud cover, and temperature, which in turn lead to remarkable differences in simulated biogenic volatile organic compound (BVOC) emissions ...
Seasonal Simulation of Tropospheric Ozone over the Midwestern and Northeastern United States: An Application of a Coupled Regional Climate and Air Quality Modeling System
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The impacts of air pollution on the environment and human health could increase as a result of potential climate change. To assess such possible changes, model simulations of pollutant concentrations need to be performed ...
NAQFC Developmental Forecast Guidance for Fine Particulate Matter (PM2.5)
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: he National Air Quality Forecasting Capability (NAQFC) upgraded its modeling system that provides developmental numerical predictions of particulate matter smaller than 2.5 ?m in diameter (PM2.5) in January 2015. The ...
Improving NOAA NAQFC PM2.5 Predictions with a Bias Correction Approach
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: articulate matter with an aerodynamic diameter less than or equal to 2.5 ?m (PM2.5) is a critical air pollutant with important impacts on human health. It is essential to provide accurate air quality forecasts to alert ...
Description and Verification of the NOAA Smoke Forecasting System: The 2007 Fire Season
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: An overview of the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration?s (NOAA) current operational Smoke Forecasting System (SFS) is presented. This system is intended as guidance to air quality forecasters and the public for ...
