Abstract: Preliminary tests of the multiscale modeling approach, also known as the cloud-resolving convective parameterization, or superparameterization, are performed using an idealized framework. In this approach, a two-dimensional ...

Abstract: A three-dimensional anelastic model has been developed using the vorticity equation, in which the pressure gradient force is eliminated. The prognostic variables of the model dynamics are the horizontal components of ...

Abstract: The goal of this paper is to gain insight into the resolution dependence of model physics, the parameterization of moist convection in particular, which is required for accurately predicting large-scale features of the ...

Abstract: ne of the most important contributions of Michio Yanai to tropical meteorology is the introduction of the concepts of apparent heat source Q1 and apparent moisture sink Q2 in the large-scale heat and moisture budgets of ...

Abstract: The principal goal of this paper is to gain further insight into the dynamical processes during the stratospheric major warming of February and early March 1979, with a special emphasis on the recovery stage. To achieve ...
