Objective Identification of Echoes Due to Anomalous Propagation in Weather Radar Data
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Serious contamination of weather radar data can occur in atmospheric conditions that cause anomalous propagation of the radar beam. Excessive downward refraction of the beam may be sufficient to cause ground returns ...
A 15-year Simulation of the Clear-Sky Greenhouse Effect Using the ECMWF Reanalyses: Fluxes and Comparisons with ERBE
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Results are presented from the project Clear-sky Longwave from ERA (CLERA), in which simulations were performed of clear-sky longwave fluxes and heating rates for the period 1979?93, based on data from the European Centre ...
The Representation of Water Vapor and Its Dependence on Vertical Resolution in the Hadley Centre Climate Model
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Simulations of the Hadley Centre Atmospheric Climate Model version 3, HadAM3, are used to investigate the impact of increasing vertical resolution on simulated climates. In particular, improvements in the representation ...
Water Vapor Feedbacks in the ECMWF Reanalyses and Hadley Centre Climate Model
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Many studies have been made of the water vapor feedback, in both satellite data and climate model simulations. Most infer the magnitude of the feedback from the variability present in geographical distributions of the key ...
