RISThe Predictability of Soil Moisture and Near-Surface Temperature in Hindcasts of the NCEP Seasonal Forecast Model
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Using the NCEP?DOE reanalysis (R-2) soil wetness and the NCEP Seasonal Forecast System, seasonal predictability of the soil moisture and near-surface temperature, and the role of land surface initial conditions are examined. ...
A Comparison of the Noah and OSU Land Surface Models in the ECPC Seasonal Forecast Model
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The Noah land surface model (LSM) has recently been implemented into the Experimental Climate Prediction Center?s (ECPC?s) global Seasonal Forecast Model (SFM). Its performance is compared to the older ECPC SFM with the ...
Land–Atmosphere Coupling Strength in the Global Forecast System
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The operational coupled land?atmosphere forecast model from the National Centers for Environmental Prediction (NCEP) is evaluated for the strength and characteristics of its coupling in the water cycle between land and ...
Evaluation of Soil Moisture in the NCEP–NCAR and NCEP–DOE Global Reanalyses
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: This study compares soil moisture analyses from the National Centers for Environmental Prediction?National Center for Atmospheric Research (NCEP?NCAR) global reanalysis (R-1) and the later NCEP? Department of Energy (DOE) ...
Soil Moisture Memory in AGCM Simulations: Analysis of Global Land–Atmosphere Coupling Experiment (GLACE) Data
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Soil moisture memory is a key aspect of land?atmosphere interaction and has major implications for seasonal forecasting. Because of a severe lack of soil moisture observations on most continents, existing analyses of ...
Overview of the CPOC Pilot Study at Whiteface Mountain, NY: Cloud Processing of Organics within Clouds (CPOC)
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Aqueous chemical processing within cloud and fog water is thought to be a key process in the production and transformation of secondary organic aerosol mass, found abundantly and ubiquitously throughout the troposphere. ...
GLACE: The Global Land–Atmosphere Coupling Experiment. Part I: Overview
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The Global Land?Atmosphere Coupling Experiment (GLACE) is a model intercomparison study focusing on a typically neglected yet critical element of numerical weather and climate modeling: land?atmosphere coupling strength, ...
GLACE: The Global Land–Atmosphere Coupling Experiment. Part II: Analysis
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The 12 weather and climate models participating in the Global Land?Atmosphere Coupling Experiment (GLACE) show both a wide variation in the strength of land?atmosphere coupling and some intriguing commonalities. In this ...
