Influence of Shallow Cumuli on Subcloud Turbulence Fluxes Analyzed from Aircraft Data
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The purpose of this study is to improve understanding of shallow cumuli in the planetary boundary layer (PBL) by quantitatively analysing subcloud turbulence variables. Aircraft turbulence data for three flights from the ...
Effect of Ocean Surface Heterogeneity on Climate Simulation
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: A sensitivity study is performed to examine the potential effect of spatial variations in sea surface temperature (SST) that typically are not resolved in general climate models (GCMs). The study uses a single-column ...
Atmospheric Water Vapor Transport in NCEP–NCAR Reanalyses: Comparison with River Discharge in the Central United States
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The authors extract the water transport produced by the National Centers for Environmental Prediction reanalysis for a 10-yr period, 1984?93, and compare its convergence into two river basins with an independent dataset, ...
