An Investigation of Convection behind the Cape Canaveral Sea-Breeze Front
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: A three-dimensional numerical simulation of land?water circulations near Cape Canaveral, Florida, is performed using the Advanced Regional Prediction System. The role of Kelvin?Helmholtz instability (KHI) in determining ...
An Evaluation of GOES-8 Retrievals
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The Geostationary Operational Environmental Satellite (GOES-8) temperature?moisture retrievals were compared with collocated National Weather Service radiosonde observations (RAOBs) to assess retrieval performance. Retrieved ...
Diagnosing Convective Instability from GOES-8 Radiances
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Statistical algorithms are developed to diagnose the vertical change in equivalent potential temperature (?Θe) between 920 and 620 hPa from GOES-8 radiance data. The models are prepared using a training dataset of radiosonde ...
High-Resolution Modeling of the Cape Canaveral Area Land–Water Circulations and Associated Features
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The Advanced Regional Prediction System is used to perform a three-dimensional numerical simulation of land?water circulations near Cape Canaveral, Florida. Three two-way nested grids having spacings of 1.6, 0.4, and 0.1 ...
The Vertical Error Characteristics of GOES-Derived Winds: Description and Experiments with Numerical Weather Prediction
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Errors in the height assignment of some satellite-derived winds exist because the satellites sense radiation emitted from a finite layer of the atmosphere rather than a specific level. Problems in data assimilation may ...
