Relative Efficiencies of Turbulent Transfer of Heat, Mass, and Momentum over a Patchy Urban Surface
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: This study uses observational data from a suburban site in Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada, to investigate the relative facility with which heat, water vapor, and momentum are transported by turbulence in the unstable ...
Trends in Moderate Rainfall Extremes: A Regional Monotone Regression Approach
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: ainfall extremes are thought to have increased over recent years. Typically linear trends have been considered to describe the temporal evolution of high quantiles of the daily rainfall distribution. For long records it ...
Internal Waves in the Upper Ocean
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Previous work has shown that the deep-ocean internal-wave field has little variability and can be described by a stationary spectrum. This analysis of upper-ocean internal-wave data supports the hypothesis that the variable ...
Can Surface-Cover Tiles Be Summed to Give Neighborhood Fluxes in Cities?
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: he paper addresses the question of whether the modeling practice of summing separate land-cover tiles to give urban fluxes at the neighborhood scale has merit. A central-city site in Basel, Switzerland, was instrumented ...
