A Conceptual Model for Development of Intense Pyrocumulonimbus in Western North America
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: he first observationally based conceptual model for intense pyrocumulonimbus (pyroCb) development is described by applying reanalyzed meteorological model output to an inventory of 26 intense pyroCb events from June-August ...
Supporting Weather Forecasters in Predicting and Monitoring Saharan Air Layer Dust Events as They Impact the Greater Caribbean
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: AbstractDuring the spring and summer months, the greater Caribbean region typically experiences pulses of moderate to heavy episodes of airborne African dust concentrations that originate over the Sahara Desert and propagate ...
Detection and Inventory of Intense Pyroconvection in Western North America using GOES-15 Daytime Infrared Data
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: ntense wildfires occasionally generate fire-triggered storms, known as pyrocumulonimbus (pyroCb), that can inject smoke particles and trace gases into the upper troposphere and lower stratosphere (UTLS). This study develops ...
The 2013 Rim Fire: Implications for Predicting Extreme Fire Spread, Pyroconvection, and Smoke Emissions
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: he 2013 Rim Fire, which burned over 104,000 ha, was one of the most severe fire events in California?s history, in terms of its rapid growth, intensity, overall size, and persistent smoke plume. At least two large ...

Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Applying Advanced Ground-Based Remote Sensing in the Southeast Asian Maritime Continent to Characterize Regional Proficiencies in Smoke Transport Modeling
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: his work describes some of the most extensive ground-based observations of the aerosol profile collected in Southeast Asia to date, highlighting the challenges in simulating these observations with a mesoscale perspective. ...
