Demonstrating the Potential Impacts of Assimilating FY-4A Visible Radiances on Forecasts of Cloud and Precipitation with a Localized Particle Filter
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Verification of a Mesoscale Data-Assimilation and Forecasting System for the Oklahoma City Area during the Joint Urban 2003 Field Project
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The National Center for Atmospheric Research (NCAR) and the U.S. Army Test and Evaluation Command have developed a multiscale, rapid-cycling, real-time, four-dimensional data-assimilation and forecasting system that has ...
The ERICA IOP 5 Storm. Part III: Mesoscale Cyclogenesis and Precipitation Parameterization
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Modeling studies have consistently shown the importance of latent heat release in explosive marine cyclogenesis. However, a systematic evaluation of precipitation parameterization in the simulation of marine cyclones has ...
A Multiscale Numerical Study of Hurricane Andrew (1992). Part I: Explicit Simulation and Verification
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: In this study, the inner-core structures of Hurricane Andrew (1992) are explicitly simulated using an improved version of the Penn State?NCAR nonhydrostatic, two-way interactive, movable, triply nested grid mesoscale model ...
A Multiscale Numerical Study of Hurricane Andrew (1992). Part III: Dynamically Induced Vertical Motion
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: In this study, the vertical force balance in the inner-core region is examined, through the analysis of vertical momentum budgets, using a high-resolution, explicit simulation of Hurricane Andrew (1992). Three-dimensional ...
A Multiscale Numerical Study of Hurricane Andrew (1992). Part IV: Unbalanced Flows
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Despite considerable progress in understanding the hurricane vortex using balanced models, the validity of gradient wind balance in the eyewall remains controversial in observational studies. In this paper, the structure ...
A Multiscale Numerical Study of Hurricane Andrew (1992). Part II: Kinematics and Inner-Core Structures
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Despite considerable research, understanding of the temporal evolution of the inner-core structures of hurricanes is very limited owing to the lack of continuous high-resolution observational data of a storm. In this study, ...
A Multiscale Numerical Study of Hurricane Andrew (1992). Part VI: Small-Scale Inner-Core Structures and Wind Streaks
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The objectives of Part VI of this series of papers are to (a) simulate the finescale features of Hurricane Andrew (1992) using a cloud-resolving grid length of 2 km, (b) diagnose the formation of small-scale wind streaks, ...
