Abstract: The equations of motion are adapted for use in computing the tangential and normal components of friction in a model hurricane. Values of the components of friction are estimated from surface data of the August 1949 Florida ...

Abstract: It is suggested that there are two major problems with the ?standard? methods of reducing pressure to sea level based on the surface temperature or the lowest-layer(s) temperature of a numerical model. The first is that ...

Abstract: A new method is presented for obtaining the numerical solution of the production-dissipation component of the turbulent kinetic energy equation that arises in the Mellor-Yamada level 2.5 turbulent closure model. The ...

Abstract: Limited-area models (LAMs) are presently used for a wide variety of research and operational forecasting applications, and such use will likely expand greatly as the rapid increase in the performance/price ratio of computers ...

Abstract: Nearly all distribution systems in the United States include storage tanks and reservoirs. They are the most visible components of a water distribution system but are generally the least understood in terms of their impact ...

Abstract: field study was conducted of flows in the Birch Creek Valley in eastern Idaho. There is a distinct topographic constriction in the Birch Creek Valley that creates two subbasins: an upper and lower valley. The data were ...

Abstract: he first phase of an atmospheric tracer experiment program, designated Project Sagebrush, was conducted at the Idaho National Laboratory in October 2013. The purpose was to reevaluate the results of classical field experiments ...
