RISThe Vertical Structure of Tropical Convection and Its Impact on the Budgets of Water Vapor and Ozone
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Convective clouds in the Tropics that penetrate the boundary layer inversion preferentially detrain into a shallow outflow layer (2?5 km) or a deep outflow layer (10?17 km). The properties of these layers are diagnosed ...
Seasonal Maize Forecasting for South Africa and Zimbabwe Derived from an Agroclimatological Model
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Seasonal maize water-stress forecasts were derived for area averages of the primary maize-growing regions of South Africa and Zimbabwe. An agroclimatological model was used to create a historical record of maize water ...
Long-Term Winter Inversion Properties in a Mountain Valley of the Western United States and Implications on Air Quality
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: ecause of the geography of a narrow valley and surrounding tall mountains, Cache Valley (located in northern Utah and southern Idaho) experiences frequent shallow temperature inversions that are both intense and persistent. ...
Tropospheric Aerosol Optical Thickness from the GOCART Model and Comparisons with Satellite and Sun Photometer Measurements
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The Georgia Institute of Technology?Goddard Global Ozone Chemistry Aerosol Radiation and Transport (GOCART) model is used to simulate the aerosol optical thickness τ for major types of tropospheric aerosols including ...
Remote Sensing of Tropospheric Pollution from Space
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: We review the progress of tropospheric trace gas observations and address the need for additional measurement capabilities as recommended by the National Research Council. Tropospheric measurements show pollution in the ...
