Thermodynamic Phase and Ice Cloud Properties in Northern Hemisphere Winter Extratropical Cyclones Observed by Aqua AIRS
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: ce cloud properties in Northern Hemisphere winter extratropical cyclones are examined using the Atmospheric Infrared Sounder (AIRS), version 6, cloud products. The cloud thermodynamic phase product indicates that warm ...
Cloud and Precipitation in Low-Latitude Extratropical Cyclones Conditionally Sorted on CYGNSS Surface Latent and Sensible Heat Fluxes
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Diagnosing Warm Frontal Cloud Formation in a GCM: A Novel Approach Using Conditional Subsetting
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: his study analyzes characteristics of clouds and vertical motion across extratropical cyclone warm fronts in the NASA Goddard Institute for Space Studies general circulation model. The validity of the modeled clouds is ...
Evaluation of ERA-Interim and MERRA Cloudiness in the Southern Ocean
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: he Southern Ocean cloud cover modeled by the Interim ECMWF Re-Analysis (ERA-Interim) and Modern-Era Retrospective Analysis for Research and Applications (MERRA) reanalyses are compared against Moderate Resolution Imaging ...
Observational Constraints on the Cloud Thermodynamic Phase in Midlatitude Storms
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The conditions under which supercooled liquid water gradually gives way to ice in the mixed-phase regions of clouds are still poorly understood and may be an important source of cloud feedback uncertainty in general ...
CYGNSS Observations and Analysis of Low-Latitude Extratropical Cyclones
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
On the Relationship between CYGNSS Surface Heat Fluxes and the Life Cycle of Low-Latitude Ocean Extratropical Cyclones
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
The Relationship between Boundary Layer Stability and Cloud Cover in the Post-Cold-Frontal Region
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: sing NASA Aqua MODIS and AIRS data, the relationship between low-level cloud cover (cloud top below the 700-hPa level) and boundary layer stability is explored in post-cold-frontal conditions. A linear relationship is found ...
Evaluation of Extratropical Cyclone Precipitation in the North Atlantic Basin: An Analysis of ERA-Interim, WRF, and Two CMIP5 Models
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: AbstractThe representation of extratropical cyclone (ETC) precipitation in general circulation models (GCMs) and the Weather Research and Forecasting (WRF) Model is analyzed. This work considers the link between ETC ...
WRF Hindcasts of Cold Front Passages over the ARM Eastern North Atlantic Site: A Sensitivity Study
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: AbstractThe present study explores the ability of the Weather Research and Forecasting (WRF) Model to accurately reproduce the passage of extratropical cold fronts at the DOE ARM eastern North Atlantic (ENA) observation ...
