Sensitivity of Numerical Simulation of Early Rapid Intensification of Hurricane Emily (2005) to Cloud Microphysical and Planetary Boundary Layer Parameterizations
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: An advanced research version of the Weather Research and Forecasting (ARW) Model is used to simulate the early rapid intensification of Hurricane Emily (2005) using grids nested to high resolution (3 km). A series of ...
Impact of the Dual-Polarization Doppler Radar Data on Two Convective Storms with a Warm-Rain Radar Forward Operator
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: he dual-polarization (dual pol) Doppler radar can transmit/receive both horizontally and vertically polarized power returns. The dual-pol radar measurements have been shown to provide a more accurate precipitation estimate ...
Impact of Airborne Doppler Radar Data Assimilation on the Numerical Simulation of Intensity Changes of Hurricane Dennis near a Landfall
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Accurate forecasting of a hurricane?s intensity changes near its landfall is of great importance in making an effective hurricane warning. This study uses airborne Doppler radar data collected during the NASA Tropical Cloud ...
An Ice-Phase Microphysics Forward Model and Preliminary Results of Polarimetric Radar Data Assimilation
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: n this study, an ice-phase microphysics forward model has been developed for the Weather Research and Forecasting (WRF) Model three-dimensional variational data assimilation (WRF 3D-Var) system. Radar forward operators for ...
Diagnosis of the Initial and Forecast Errors in the Numerical Simulation of the Rapid Intensification of Hurricane Emily (2005)
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: A diagnostic study is conducted to examine the initial and forecast errors in a short-range numerical simulation of Hurricane Emily?s (2005) early rapid intensification. The initial conditions and the simulated hurricane ...
The Impact of Aircraft Dropsonde and Satellite Wind Data on Numerical Simulations of Two Landfalling Tropical Storms during the Tropical Cloud Systems and Processes Experiment
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Dropwindsonde, Geostationary Operational Environmental Satellite-11 (GOES-11) rapid-scan atmospheric motion vectors, and NASA Quick Scatterometer (QuikSCAT) near-surface wind data collected during NASA?s Tropical Cloud ...
Assimilation of Dual-Polarization Radar Observations in Mixed- and Ice-Phase Regions of Convective Storms: Information Content and Forward Model Errors
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: ual-polarization Doppler radar has proven useful for the estimation of hydrometeor content and the classification of hydrometeor type. Recent studies have leveraged dual-polarization-specific information to produce improved ...
Analysis of a Cycloid Speed Reducer Considering Tooth Profile Modification and Clearance-Fit Output Mechanism
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The load distribution analysis plays a significant role in the performance evaluation of cycloid speed reducer. However, current analytical models usually ignore elastic deformation, clearances, or assembly errors. These ...
Regional Comparison of GOES Cloud-Top Properties and Radar Characteristics in Advance of First-Flash Lightning Initiation
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: ightning initiation (LI) events over Florida and Oklahoma are examined and statistically compared to understand the behavior of observed radar and infrared satellite interest fields (IFs) in the 75-min time frame surrounding ...
Use of an End-to-End-Simulator to Analyze CYGNSS
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: AbstractTropical convection during the onset of two Madden?Julian oscillation (MJO) events, in October and December of 2011, was simulated using the Weather Research and Forecasting (WRF) Model. Observations from the ...
