RISRelationships among Lightning, Precipitation, and Hydrometeor Characteristics over the North Pacific Ocean
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Lightning data from the Pacific Lightning Detection Network (PacNet) and Lightning Imaging Sensor (LIS) on the Tropical Rainfall Measuring Mission (TRMM) satellite were compared with TRMM precipitation radar products and ...
The Impact of Lightning Data Assimilation on a Winter Storm Simulation over the North Pacific Ocean
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: In this paper, the potential of lightning data assimilation to improve NWP forecasts over data-sparse oceans is investigated using, for the first time, a continuous, calibrated lightning data stream. The lightning data ...
Development of a Long-Range Lightning Detection Network for the Pacific: Construction, Calibration, and Performance
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The waveguide between the earth?s surface and the ionosphere allows very low-frequency (VLF) emissions generated by lightning, called sferics, to propagate over long distances. The new Pacific Lightning Detection Network ...
Student-Proposed Cruise Captured Wakes of Oahu and Kauai Islands
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: A four-day educational cruise navigated around the leeward side of Oahu and Kauai to observe the thermodynamic and dynamic features of the trade-wind wakes of these small islands by using weather balloons and other onboard ...
