A Chemical Model of the Troposphere and Stratosphere
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: A time-dependent, one-dimensional model of the coupled chemistry and vertical mixing of the atmosphere is used to compute the distribution for many atmospheric constituents of the troposphere and stratosphere. The model ...
Similarity Theory of the Buoyantly Interactive Planetary Boundary Layer with Entrainment
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: A similarity model is developed for the vertical profiles of turbulent flow variables in an entraining turbulent boundary layer of arbitrary buoyant stability. In the general formulation the vertical profiles, internal ...
On Microstructure Evolution in Fiber-Reinforced Elastomers and Implications for Their Mechanical Response and Stability
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: and (2010, “Fiber-Reinforced Hyperelastic Solids: A Realizable Homogenization Constitutive Theory,” J. Eng. Math., 68(1), pp. 57–83) have recently put forward a homogenization theory with the ...
Effects of Subgrid-Scale Mixing Parameterizations on Simulated Distributions of Natural 14C, Temperature, and Salinity in a Three-Dimensional Ocean General Circulation Model
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The effects of parameterizations of subgrid-scale mixing on simulated distributions of natural 14C, temperature, and salinity in a three-dimensional ocean general circulation model are examined. The parameterizations studied ...
Evaporation-Limited Tropical Temperatures as a Constraint on Climate Sensitivity
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Studies of paleoclimate and modern observations indicate that evaporative effects limit thermal response in equatorial regions. We develop a latitude-resolved, steady-state energy balance model which incorporates the effect ...
A Field Case Study and Numerical Simulation of Mountain Flows with Weak Ambient Winds
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Wind data collected by two ground stations in a mountainous area are used to investigate the mean properties of the flow on two typical summer days when the wind at the ridgetop had a perpendicular component to the ridge. ...
Water Surface Height Determination with a GPS Wave Glider: A Demonstration in Loch Ness, Scotland
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: geodetic GPS receiver has been installed on a Wave Glider, an unmanned water surface vehicle. Using kinematic precise point positioning (PPP) GPS, which operates globally without directly requiring reference stations, ...
