Pilot Study of Methods to Decrease Measurement Errors of Tropospheric Inversions by Ground-Based Microwave Radiometry
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Results of radiometer temperature profile simulations are analyzed in order to examine the hypothesis that knowledge of temperature inversion parameters obtained from other instruments would substantially improve the ...
A System for the Hourly Assimilation of Surface Observations in Mountainous and Flat Terrain
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: An assimilation system is presented that was designed to provide timely, detailed, and coherent analyses of surface data, even when the data are collected in rough terrain where station elevations differ widely and ...
An Alternative Sea Level Pressure Reduction and a Statistical Comparison of Geostrophic Wind Estimates with Observed Surface Winds
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: A method for station or grid point reduction of surface pressure to sea level or some other level is presented that shows improvement over the standard reduction method in the western United States. This method (MAPS ...
An Unfolding Algorithm for Profiler Winds
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration has completed the installation of a 30-site demonstration network of wind-profiling radars in the central United States. The network is being used to demonstrate and ...
The New England High-Resolution Temperature Program
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The New England High-Resolution Temperature Program seeks to improve the accuracy of summertime 2-m temperature and dewpoint temperature forecasts in the New England region through a collaborative effort between the research ...
