Extreme Summer Convection in South America
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Tropical Rainfall Measuring Mission (TRMM) Precipitation Radar (PR) and National Centers for Environmental Prediction?National Center for Atmospheric Research (NCEP?NCAR) reanalysis data are used to indicate mechanisms ...
Characteristics of Precipitating Convective Systems in the Premonsoon Season of South Asia
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Tropical Rainfall Measuring Mission (TRMM) Precipitation Radar (PR) data obtained over South Asia during eight premonsoon seasons (March?May) show that the precipitation is more convective in nature and more sensitive to ...
Characteristics of Precipitating Convective Systems in the South Asian Monsoon
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Eight years of Tropical Rainfall Measuring Mission (TRMM) Precipitation Radar (PR) data show how convective systems of different types contribute to precipitation of the South Asian monsoon. The main factor determining the ...
Characteristics of Precipitating Convective Systems Accounting for the Summer Rainfall of Tropical and Subtropical South America
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: en years of Tropical Rainfall Measuring Mission precipitation radar data are used to study the physical properties of the precipitating cloud systems that account for the summer rainfall of tropical and subtropical South ...
Regional, Seasonal, and Diurnal Variations of Extreme Convection in the South Asian Region
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Temporal and spatial variations of convection in South Asia are analyzed using eight years of Tropical Rainfall Measuring Mission (TRMM) Precipitation Radar (PR) data and NCEP reanalysis fields. To identify the most extreme ...
Use of the Earth’s Surface as a Reference to Correct Airborne Nadir-Looking Radar Radial Velocity Measurements for Platform Motion
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: AbstractA technique for correcting radar radial velocity Vr in airborne, nadir-pointing radar data using the surface of Earth as a reference is proposed and tested. Operating airborne Doppler radars requires correcting the ...
