Abstract: The temporal?spatial distribution of thin moist layers in the midtroposphere over the tropical eastern Pacific is studied by data analyses of radiosonde soundings and downscaling numerical experiments with a regional model. ...

Abstract: ultimodel ensemble data assimilation may account for uncertainties of numerical models due to different dynamical cores and physics parameterizations. In the previous studies, the ensemble sizes for each model are prescribed ...

Abstract: numerical experiment using a regional nonhydrostatic model is performed to investigate the synoptic condition related to the heavy precipitation event that occurred at Jakarta in West Java, Indonesia, in January?February ...

Abstract: pace?time extrapolation is a key technique in precipitation nowcasting. Motions of patterns are estimated using two or more consecutive images, and the patterns are extrapolated in space and time to obtain their future ...

Abstract: AbstractOver the past few decades, precipitation forecasts by numerical weather prediction (NWP) models have been remarkably improved. Yet, precipitation nowcasting based on spatiotemporal extrapolation tends to provide a ...

Abstract: he phased-array weather radar (PAWR) is a new-generation weather radar that can make a 100-m-resolution three-dimensional (3D) volume scan every 30 s for 100 vertical levels, producing ~100 times more data than the ...
