Observed and WRF-Simulated Low-Level Winds in a High-Ozone Episode during the Central California Ozone Study
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: A case study is carried out for the 29 July?3 August 2000 episode of the Central California Ozone Study (CCOS), a typical summertime high-ozone event in the Central Valley of California. The focus of the study is on the ...
The Statistical Relationship between Upslope Flow and Rainfall in California's Coastal Mountains: Observations during CALJET
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The California Landfalling Jets Experiment (CALJET) was carried out during the winter of 1997/98, in part to study orographic rainfall in California's coastal mountains using coastal wind profilers. This observational study ...
A New Look at Calibration and Use of Eppley Precision Infrared Radiometers. Part I: Theory and Application
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The calibration and accuracy of the Eppley precision infrared radiometer (PIR) is examined both theoretically and experimentally. A rederivation of the fundamental energy balance of the PIR indicates that the calibration ...
Kelvin Waves and Internal Bores in the Marine Boundary Layer Inversion and Their Relationship to Coastally Trapped Wind Reversals
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Detailed observations of a coastally trapped disturbance, or wind reversal, on 10?11 June 1994 along the California coast provide comprehensive documentation of its structure, based on aircraft, wind profiler, radio acoustic ...
Observations and Analysis of the 10–11 June 1994 Coastally Trapped Disturbance
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: A coastally trapped disturbance (CTD), characterized by southerly flow at the surface on 10?11 June 1994, was observed from the California Bight to Bodega Bay during a field experiment along the California coast. (North?south ...
