Physics of Greenhouse Effect and Convection in Warm Oceans
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Sea surface temperature (SST) in roughly 50% of the tropical Pacific Ocean is warm enough (SST > 300 K) to permit deep convection. This paper examines the effects of deep convection on the climatological mean vertical ...
Validation of Clear-Sky Fluxes for Tropical Oceans from the Earth Radiation Budget Experiment
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The existence and magnitude of a systematic bias in the clear-sky longwave fluxes from the Earth Radiation Budget Experiment (ERBE) is investigated. The bias is apparently introduced because the ERBE method for scene ...
