RISA Numerical Sensitivity Study on the Impact of Soil Moisture on Convection-Related Parameters and Convective Precipitation over Complex Terrain
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: he impact of soil moisture on convection-related parameters and convective precipitation over complex terrain is studied by numerical experiments using the nonhydrostatic Consortium for Small-Scale Modeling (COSMO) model. ...
Comparison of Convective Boundary Layer Characteristics from Aircraft and Wind Lidar Observations
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: AbstractDuring the Convective Storm Initiation Project experiment, which was conducted in summer 2005 in southern England, vertical velocity in the convective boundary layer (CBL) was measured simultaneously with a research ...
Warm-Air Intrusions in Arizona’s Meteor Crater
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: pisodic nighttime intrusions of warm air, accompanied by strong winds, enter the enclosed near-circular Meteor Crater basin on clear, synoptically undisturbed nights. Data analysis is used to document these events and to ...
Katabatically Driven Cold Air Intrusions into a Basin Atmosphere
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: AbstractThe interactions between a katabatic flow on a plain and a circular basin cut into the plain and surrounded by an elevated rim were examined during a 5-h steady-state period during the Second Meteor Crater Experiment ...
The CROSSINN Field Experiment: 3-D Flow Structure and Boundary Layer Behavior in an Austrian Valley
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Mesoscale Wind Regimes in Chile at 30°S
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: In November of 1999, four permanent surface stations were installed in the vicinity of the surface ozone monitoring station on the summit of the Cerro Tololo (2200 m MSL) in Chile at 30°S. These stations were used to study ...
CROSSINN - a field experiment to study the three-dimensional flow structure in the Inn Valley, Austria
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The CROSSINN field experiment investigates the three-dimensional structure of thermally and dynamically driven flows and their impact on the boundary layer in a large Alpine valley using comprehensive state-of-the-art ...
The Nocturnal Evolution of Atmospheric Structure in a Basin as a Larger-Scale Katabatic Flow Is Lifted over Its Rim
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: AbstractThe successive stages of nocturnal atmospheric structure inside a small isolated basin are investigated when a katabatically driven flow on an adjacent tilted plain advects cold air over the basin rim. Data came ...
The DACCIWA Project: Dynamics–Aerosol–Chemistry–Cloud Interactions in West Africa
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: assive economic and population growth, and urbanization are expected to lead to a tripling of anthropogenic emissions in southern West Africa (SWA) between 2000 and 2030. However, the impacts of this on human health, ...
Probing the Fog Life Cycles in the Namib Desert
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: An intensive observation period was conducted in September 2017 in the central Namib, Namibia, as part of the project Namib Fog Life Cycle Analysis (NaFoLiCA). The purpose of the field campaign was to investigate the spatial ...
