Upstream Cyclone Influence on the Predictability of Block Onsets over the Euro-Atlantic Region
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: AbstractAtmospheric blocking has been shown to be a phenomenon that models struggle to predict accurately, particularly the onset of a blocked state following a more zonal flow. This struggle is, in part, due to the lack ...
Linking Atmospheric Rivers and Warm Conveyor Belt Airflows
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: AbstractExtreme precipitation associated with extratropical cyclones can lead to flooding if cyclones track over land. However, the dynamical mechanisms by which moist air is transported into cyclones is poorly understood. ...
How Do Atmospheric Rivers Form?
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: he term ?atmospheric river? is used to describe corridors of strong water vapor transport in the troposphere. Filaments of enhanced water vapor, commonly observed in satellite imagery extending from the subtropics to the ...
Cloud Banding and Winds in Intense European Cyclones: Results from the DIAMET Project
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: he Diabatic Influences on Mesoscale Structures in Extratropical Storms (DIAMET) project aims to improve forecasts of high-impact weather in extratropical cyclones through field measurements, high-resolution numerical ...
