The Impact of Effective Buoyancy and Dynamic Pressure Forcing on Vertical Velocities within Two-Dimensional Updrafts
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: his research develops simple diagnostic expressions for vertical acceleration dw/dt and vertical velocity w within updrafts that account for effective buoyancy and the dynamic pressure gradient force. Effective buoyancy ...
Effects of Air Entrainment on Plunge Pool Scour
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Plunge pool scour depths are normally assumed to be dependent on unit flow
Closure to “<i>Effects of Air Entrainment on Plunge Pool Scour</i>” by Peter John Mason (March, 1989, Vol. 115, No. 3)
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Origin of Non-Gaussian Regimes and Predictability in an Atmospheric Model
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: his study details properties of non-Gaussian regimes and state-dependent ensemble spreads of trajectories in a reduced phase space of an idealized three-level quasigeostrophic (QG3) dynamical model. Methodologically, ...
Theoretical Expressions for the Ascent Rate of Moist Deep Convective Thermals
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: AbstractAn approximate analytic expression is derived for the ratio ? of the ascent rate of moist deep convective thermals and the maximum vertical velocity within them; ? is characterized as a function of two nondimensional ...
Analytical Solution for Diffusion of VOCs through Composite Landfill Liners
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Analytical solutions are presented for analyzing volatile organic compound (VOC) diffusion through intact composite landfill liners for two scenarios with boundary conditions at the base of either a VOC concentration of ...
Analytical Solutions for Contaminant Diffusion in Double-Layered Porous Media
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Analytical solutions for conservative solute diffusion in one-dimensional double-layered porous media are presented in this paper. These solutions are applicable to various combinations of fixed solute concentration and ...
Dynamics Governing a Simulated Mesoscale Convective System with a Training Convective Line
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: his research investigates the dynamics of a simulated training line/adjoining stratiform (TL/AS) mesoscale convective system (MCS), with composite atmospheric fields used as initial and lateral boundary conditions for the ...
The Simulated Structure and Evolution of a Quasi-Idealized Warm-Season Convective System with a Training Convective Line
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: his study details the development and use of an idealized modeling framework to simulate a quasi-stationary heavy-rain-producing mesoscale convective system (MCS). A 36-h composite progression of atmospheric fields computed ...
Synoptic Control of Heavy-Rain-Producing Convective Training Episodes
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: his study examines the degree to which the downscale cascade of information from synoptic-scale motions constrains error growth in simulations of a particular type of heavy-rain-producing mesoscale convective system known ...
