RISAn Airborne Multifrequency Microwave Analysis of Precipitation within Two Winter Cyclones
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
A Framework for the Statistical Analysis of Large Radar and Lightning Datasets: Results from STEPS 2000
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: framework for the statistical analysis of large radar and lightning datasets is described and implemented in order to analyze two research questions in atmospheric electricity: storms dominated by positive cloud-to-ground ...
Relationships between Convective Storm Kinematics, Precipitation, and Lightning
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Combined multiparameter radar, dual-Doppler, thermodynamic sounding, and lightning observations of 11 thunderstorms (6 from the midlatitudes, 5 from the Tropics) are examined. The thunderstorms span a wide spectrum of ...
An Investigation of the Onsets of the 1999 and 2000 Monsoons in Central Nepal
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The Marsyandi River basin in the central Nepalese Himalayas is a topographically complex region, with strong spatial gradients of precipitation over various timescales. A meteorological network consisting of 20 stations ...
Monitoring the Monsoon in the Himalayas: Observations in Central Nepal, June 2001
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The Monsoon Himalayan Precipitation Experiment (MOHPREX) occurred during June 2001 along the south slopes of the Himalayas in central Nepal. Radiosondes were launched around the clock from two sites, one in the Marsyandi ...

Abstract: AbstractA pyrocumulus is a convective cloud that can develop over a wildfire. Under certain conditions, pyrocumulus clouds become vertically developed enough to produce lightning. NEXRAD dual-polarization weather radar and ...
Observations of Quasi-Symmetric Echo Patterns in Clear Air with the CSU–CHILL Polarimetric Radar
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: On a few occasions during the summer and fall of 2002, and again in the fall of 2003, the Colorado State University (CSU)?University of Chicago?Illinois State Water Survey (CHILL) S-band polarimetric Doppler radar observed ...
Polarimetric Radar Observations of Convection in Northwestern Mexico during the North American Monsoon Experiment
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The spatial and temporal variability of convection during the North American Monsoon Experiment (NAME) was examined via analysis of three-dimensional polarimetric radar data. Terrain bands were defined as the Gulf of ...
Investigation of Microphysical Processes Occurring in Isolated Convection during NAME
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: To address questions regarding microphysical processes occurring in the core North American monsoon region, data from NCAR?s S-band polarimetric Doppler radar (S-Pol) deployed during the North American Monsoon Experiment ...
The Diurnal Cycle of Clouds and Precipitation along the Sierra Madre Occidental Observed during NAME-2004: Implications for Warm Season Precipitation Estimation in Complex Terrain
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: This study examines the spatial and temporal variability in the diurnal cycle of clouds and precipitation tied to topography within the North American Monsoon Experiment (NAME) tier-I domain during the 2004 NAME enhanced ...
