Spatial Interpolation of Meteorological Data in Complex Terrain Using Temporal Statistics
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Diagnostic wind field numerical models have significant difficulty developing representative wind velocities in complex terrain. A large of this difficulty begins with the initial wind field interpolation. If this interpolated ...
Simulations of the Hydrological Cycle over Southern South America Using the CPTEC/COLA AGCM
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The La Plata River basin is the second largest basin of South America after the Amazon basin, and it is located in an international area that occupies territories of Argentina, Uruguay, Brazil, Paraguay, and Bolivia, areas ...
Investigation of the Coupling Between the Dynamics of Vortical Structures and Flame Stability in Bluff-Body Premixed Combustion Using Extended Spectral Proper Orthogonal Decomposition
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Large eddy simulation data of a bluff-body stabilized flame are analyzed using spectral proper orthogonal decomposition (SPOD) to investigate: (i) the role of flame-vortex interactions in the dominant flow dynamics and ...
Two Contrasting Severe Seasonal Extremes in Tropical South America in 2012: Flood in Amazonia and Drought in Northeast Brazil
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: wo simultaneous extreme events affected tropical South America to the east of the Andes during the austral summer and fall of 2012: a severe drought in Northeast Brazil and intense rainfall and floods in Amazonia, both ...
A Microphysical Retrieval Scheme for Continental Low-Level Stratiform Clouds: Impacts of the Subadiabatic Character on Microphysical Properties and Radiation Budgets
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Using measurements from the Department of Energy?s Atmospheric Radiation Measurement Program, a modified ground-based remote sensing technique is developed and evaluated to study the impacts of the subadiabatic character ...
The Atmospheric Radiation Measurement Program Cloud Radars: Operational Modes
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: During the past decade, the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE), through the Atmospheric Radiation Measurement (ARM) Program, has supported the development of several millimeter-wavelength radars for the study of clouds. This ...
