RISCharacteristics of the Raindrop Size Distribution in Tropical Continental Squall Lines Observed in Darwin, Australia
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Disdrometer data measured during the passage of tropical continental squall lines in Darwin, Australia, are analyzed to study characteristics of raindrop size distribution (DSD). Fifteen continental squall lines were ...
Validation of the Rain Profiling Algorithm “ZPHI” from the C-Band Polarimetric Weather Radar in Darwin
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: An extensive application of a rain profiling algorithm (ZPHI) employing a C-band polarimetric radar (the C-POL radar of the Australian Bureau of Meteorology Research Centre in Darwin) is presented. ZPHI belongs to the class ...

Abstract: Numerical simulations of the diurnal evolution of tropical island convection observed during the Maritime Continent Thunderstorm Experiment (MCTEX) are performed using the Meteorological Research Institute nonhydrostatic ...
The Island Thunderstorm Experiment (ITEX)—A Study of Tropical Thunderstorms in the Maritime Continent
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The Island Thunderstorm Experiment (ITEX) is a field and modeling study of the tropical thunderstorms that form regularly over Bathurst and Melville Islands north of Darwin, Northern Territory, Australia, during the ...
Correcting Propagation Effects in C-Band Polarimetric Radar Observations of Tropical Convection Using Differential Propagation Phase
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: A propagation correction algorithm utilizing the differential propagation phase (?dp) was developed and tested on C-band polarimetric radar observations of tropical convection obtained during the Maritime Continent ...
The S2K Severe Weather Detection Algorithms and Their Performance

The Australian Summer Monsoon Circulation during AMEX Phase II
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The major field phase of the Australian Monsoon Experiment (AMEX Phase II) was conducted over northern Australia from 1 0 January to 1 5 February 1987. It was based on the collection of high-density tropical upper air ...
Low-Level Convergence Lines over Northeastern Australia. Part I: The North Australian Cloud Line
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Observations of dry-season north Australian cloud lines (NACLs) that form in the Gulf of Carpentaria region of northern Australia and the sea-breeze circulations that initiate them are described. The observations were made ...
