RISThe Primitive Earth: Thermal Models of the Upper Atmosphere for a Methane-Dominated Environment
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: In discerning between alternate hypotheses pertaining to the dominant composition of the primitiveenvironment of the earth, the presence of free hydrogen in the atmosphere is of prime importance. Anatmosphere composed of ...
VAS Retrievals as a Source of Information for Convective Weather Forecasts: An Objective Assessment and Comparison with Other Sources of Upper-Air Observations
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Objective experiments have been carried out to determine which moisture and stability indices as derived from the VISSR Atmospheric Sounder (VAS) contain the greatest amount of predictive information with respect to ...
The WSR-88D Severe Weather Potential Algorithm
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The WSR-88D severe weather potential (SWP) algorithm is an automated procedure for the detection of severe local storms. The algorithm identifies individual thunderstorm cells within radar imagery and, for each cell, yields ...
The Use of Volumetric Radar Reflectivity Predictors in the Development of a Second-Generation Severe Weather Potential Algorithm
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The operational WSR-88D Severe Weather Potential (SWP) algorithm is an automated nowcasting procedure aimed at providing guidance in the detection of severe local storms. It yields a numerical index proportional to the ...
