SPC Mesoscale Analysis Compared to Field-Project Soundings: Implications for Supercell Environment Studies
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Case Study of a Full-Scale Evapotranspiration Cover
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: The design, construction, and performance analyses of a
Global Identification of Previously Undetected Pre-Satellite-Era Tropical Cyclone Candidates in NOAA/CIRES Twentieth-Century Reanalysis Data
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: rior to the satellite era, limited synoptic observation networks led to an indefinite number of tropical cyclones (TCs) remaining undetected. This period of decreased confidence in the TC climatological record includes the ...
Comparison between Observed Convective Cloud-Base Heights and Lifting Condensation Level for Two Different Lifted Parcels
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Approximately 400 Automated Surface Observing System (ASOS) observations of convective cloud-base heights at 2300 UTC were collected from April through August of 2001. These observations were compared with lifting condensation ...
The Heavy Rain Event of 29 October 2000 in Hana, Maui
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: On 29 October 2000, the Hana region of Maui received 700 mm of rain in 7 h. Radar analyses revealed that the storm consisted of seven cells that were initiated along the southeast slope of Haleakala volcano. One of these ...
Quantifying the Uncertainties of Reanalyzed Arctic Cloud and Radiation Properties Using Satellite Surface Observations
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: AbstractReanalyses have proven to be convenient tools for studying the Arctic climate system, but their uncertainties should first be identified. In this study, five reanalyses (JRA-55, 20CRv2c, CFSR, ERA-Interim, and ...
The Effects of Intake Plenum Volume on the Performance of a Small Naturally Aspirated Restricted Engine
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Intake tuning is a widely recognized method for optimizing the performance of a naturally aspirated engine for motorsports applications. Wave resonance and Helmholtz theories are useful for ...
Assessment of NASA GISS CMIP5 and Post-CMIP5 Simulated Clouds and TOA Radiation Budgets Using Satellite Observations. Part I: Cloud Fraction and Properties
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: lthough many improvements have been made in phase 5 of the Coupled Model Intercomparison Project (CMIP5), clouds remain a significant source of uncertainty in general circulation models (GCMs) because their structural and ...
Assessment of NASA GISS CMIP5 and Post-CMIP5 Simulated Clouds and TOA Radiation Budgets Using Satellite Observations. Part II: TOA Radiation Budget and CREs
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: n Part I of this study, the NASA GISS Coupled Model Intercomparison Project (CMIP5) and post-CMIP5 (herein called C5 and P5, respectively) simulated cloud properties were assessed utilizing multiple satellite observations, ...
Drogue-Loss Detection for Surface Drifters during the Lagrangian Submesoscale Experiment (LASER)
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: AbstractThe Lagrangian Submesoscale Experiment (LASER) was designed to study surface flows during winter conditions in the northern Gulf of Mexico. More than 1000 mostly biodegradable drifters were launched. The drifters ...
