Signatures of Hydrometeor Species from Airborne Passive Microwave Data for Frequencies 10–183 GHz
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: assive microwave brightness temperatures (BTs) collected above severe thunderstorms using the Advanced Microwave Precipitation Radiometer and Conical Scanning Millimeter-Wave Imaging Radiometer during the Midlatitude ...
Tropical Cyclone Diurnal Cycle as Observed by TRMM
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: revious work has indicated a clear, consistent diurnal cycle in rainfall and cold cloudiness coverage around tropical cyclones. This cycle may have important implications for structure and intensity changes of these storms ...
Electrically Active Hot Towers in African Easterly Waves prior to Tropical Cyclogenesis
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: It has been hypothesized that intense convective-scale ?hot? towers play a role in tropical cyclogenesis via dynamic and thermodynamic feedbacks on the larger-scale circulation. In this study the authors investigate the ...
Relation between Tropical Easterly Waves, Convection, and Tropical Cyclogenesis: A Lagrangian Perspective
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: n this study, a wave-following Lagrangian framework was used to examine the evolution of tropical easterly wave structure, circulation, and convection in the days leading up to and including tropical cyclogenesis in the ...
Electrically Active Convection in Tropical Easterly Waves and Implications for Tropical Cyclogenesis in the Atlantic and East Pacific
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: n this study, the authors investigated the characteristics of tropical easterly wave convection and the possible implications of convective structure on tropical cyclogenesis and intensification over the Atlantic Ocean and ...
Hydrometeor Identification Using GMI Passive Microwave Brightness Temperatures
