Abstract: A number of previous studies have described how airborne temperature-sensor wetting can lead to erroneous temperature measurements under various conditions. During the 1985 Joint Hawaii Warm Rain Project (JHWRP) a large ...

Abstract: The microphysical characteristics of a precipitation type transition region within a midlatitude winter storm are discussed in relation to the background thermodynamic and kinematic fields. A deep region in which the ...

Abstract: We have analyzed aircraft observations from seventeen cumulus cells within cloud bands observed off the east coast of Hawaii during the Joint Hawaii Warm Rain Project (JHWRP) of 1985. Low level convergence generated by the ...

Abstract: he authors analyzed an extensive precipitation dataset available for the Mexico City basin that included hourly precipitation in various sectors of the city from 1993 to 2007. Observations indicated that significant changes ...

Abstract: his study analyzes the synoptic- and mesoscale conditions present during initiation and intensification of the supercell thunderstorm that produced a tornado in Ciudad Acuña, a community located in the state of Coahuila, ...

Abstract: This study examines the possible impact of tropical Indian Ocean (TIO) sea surface temperature anomalies (SSTAs) on the proportion of rapidly intensifying tropical cyclones (PRITC) over the western North Pacific (WNP) ...

Abstract: Overlaying the cool southeast Pacific Ocean is the most persistent subtropical stratocumulus cloud deck in the world. It produces a profound affect on tropical climate by shading the underlying ocean and radiatively cooling ...
