Abstract: A series of 14 numerical experiments were conducted using the Pennsylvania State University/National Center for Atmospheric Research mesoscale model on nine cases of explosive marine cyclogenesis. The main objective was ...

Abstract: Through numerical simulations with the Pennsylvania State University?NCAR Mesoscale Model the dynamics of a Catalina Eddy event that formed during the period 26?30 June 1988 off the coast of southern California is examined. ...

Abstract: A series of eight numerical experiments were conducted on seven cases of explosive marine cyclogenesis, using the Pennsylvania State University/National Center for Atmospheric Research (PSU/NCAR) mesoscale model. The main ...

Abstract: In the various formulations of Kuo (1965, 1974) type cumulus parameterization schemes, the moistening and heating by the cumulus are made proportional to the humidity and temperature differences between a model cloud and ...

Abstract: A very fine mesh model simulation of the Ocean Ranger storm of February 1982 is used to study the thermal structure and airflow in an intense marine cyclone. In particular, the study investigates the structures of the ...

Abstract: Numerical experiments with dry, inviscid models started from small normal-mode perturbations in baroclinic jet flows provide examples of ideal baroclinic cyclone development. This paper examines, with use of the Pennsylvania ...

Abstract: The authors evaluate the performance of current regional models in an intercomparison project for a case of explosive secondary marine cyclogenesis occurring during the Canadian Atlantic Storms Project and the Genesis of ...
