Urban Canopy Modeling of the New York City Metropolitan Area: A Comparison and Validation of Single- and Multilayer Parameterizations
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: High-resolution numerical simulations are conducted using the Coupled Ocean?Atmosphere Mesoscale Prediction System (COAMPS)1 with two different urban canopy parameterizations for a 23-day period in August 2005 for the New ...
Air–Sea Transport, Dispersion, and Fate Modeling in the Vicinity of the Fukushima Nuclear Power Plant: A Special Conference Session Summary
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: 2011 tragedy at the coastal Fukushima Daiichi nuclear plant created a contaminant release that was transported and dispersed in both the air and the sea. Two months after the event, the authors began planning for a special ...
Atmospheric Response to Local Upwelling in the Vicinity of New York–New Jersey Harbor
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Multiply nested urbanized mesoscale model [Coupled Ocean?Atmosphere Mesoscale Prediction System (COAMPS)] simulations of the New York?New Jersey metropolitan region are conducted for 4?11 July 2004. The simulations differ ...
Two-Way Air–Sea Coupling: A Study of the Adriatic
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: High-resolution numerical simulations of the Adriatic Sea using the Navy Coastal Ocean Model (NCOM) and Coupled Ocean?Atmosphere Mesoscale Prediction System (COAMPS) were conducted to examine the impact of the coupling ...
Simulation of Airborne Transport and Dispersion for Urban Waterside Releases
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: esults are presented from a tracer-release modeling study designed to examine atmospheric transport and dispersion (?T&D?) behavior surrounding the complex coastal?urban region of New York City, New York, where air?sea ...
Summertime Influence of SST on Surface Wind Stress off the U.S. West Coast from the U.S. Navy COAMPS Model
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: High-resolution mesoscale model sea surface temperature (SST) analyses and surface wind stress forecasts off the U.S. West Coast are analyzed on monthly time scales for robust signatures of air?sea interaction as the surface ...
Chaotic Advection in an Archipelago
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Techniques from dynamical systems theory have been applied to study horizontal stirring of fluid in the Philippine Archipelago. The authors? analysis is based on velocity fields produced by two high-resolution (3 and 6 km) ...
Forecasting the New York City Urban Heat Island and Sea Breeze during Extreme Heat Events
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: wo extreme heat events impacting the New York City (NYC), New York, metropolitan region during 7?10 June and 21?24 July 2011 are examined in detail using a combination of models and observations. The U.S. Navy's Coupled ...
