A Method to Linearly Evaluate Rainfall Frequency–Intensity Distribution
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: his study presents a method to linearly evaluate the rainfall frequency?intensity distribution, which is an important component of climatological rainfall characteristics. To grasp and represent the key information of the ...
Characteristics of Cold Season Rainfall over the Yungui Plateau
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: he climatic features of the distinctive cold season precipitation over the Yungui Plateau of China and the corresponding circulation background are investigated. From daily rainfall data observed with a high-density station ...
Global Transport on a Spherical Multiple-Cell Grid
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: econd- and third-order upstream nonoscillatory (UNO) advection schemes are applied on a spherical multiple-cell (SMC) grid for global transport. Similar to the reduced grid, the SMC grid relaxes the Courant?Friedrichs?Lewy ...
Upstream Nonoscillatory Advection Schemes
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Upstream nonoscillatory (UNO) advection schemes are derived by optimizing existing classical advection schemes and combining them in different monotonic zones to avoid flux limiters for simplicity. The UNO schemes are ...
Hourly Rainfall Changes in Response to Surface Air Temperature over Eastern Contiguous China
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: n this study, late-summer rainfall over eastern contiguous China is classified according to hourly intensity and the changes of moderate, intense, and extreme precipitation in response to variation of surface air temperature ...
Comparison of Envisat ASAR Ocean Wave Spectra with Buoy and Altimeter Data via a Wave Model
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The Advanced Synthetic Aperture Radar (ASAR) on board the Envisat satellite is an important resource for observation of global ocean surface wave spectra. However, assessment of this valuable dataset is not straightforward ...
Seasonal Variation of the Diurnal Cycle of Rainfall in Southern Contiguous China
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Hourly station rain gauge data are employed to study the seasonal variation of the diurnal cycle of rainfall in southern contiguous China. The results show a robust seasonal variation of the rainfall diurnal cycle, which ...
Two-Dimensional Simulation of the Collapse of Vapor Bubbles Near a Wall
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: In order to investigate the erosion extent and mode of cavitation in different states by the commercial code FLUENT and evaluate the reliability of the software, the collapse processes of a ...
Tuning of Acoustic Bandgaps in Phononic Crystals With Helmholtz Resonators
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: In this paper, acoustic wave propagation in a twoor threedimensional phononic crystal consisting of Helmholtz resonators embedded in a fluid matrix is studied. The band structures are calculated to discuss the influence ...
Teleconnection between NAO and Climate Downstream of the Tibetan Plateau
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Analysis of the monthly NCEP?NCAR reanalysis data and station data reveals a teleconnection pattern (NAULEA) that links climate changes over the North Atlantic and Eurasia. The NAULEA pattern has five action centers. It ...
