Mesoscale Simulation of Rapid Soil Drying and Its Implications for Predicting Daytime Temperature
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Rapid soil-surface drying, which is called ?decoupling,? accompanied by an increase in near-surface air temperature and sensible heat flux, is typically confined to the top 1?2 cm of the soil, while the deeper layers remain ...
Utility of Satellite Remote Sensing for Land–Atmosphere Coupling and Drought Metrics
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: eedbacks between the land and the atmosphere can play an important role in the water cycle, and a number of studies have quantified land?atmosphere (LA) interactions and feedbacks through observations and prediction models. ...
Diurnal Covariation in Soil Heat Flux and Net Radiation
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Diurnal variation in soil heat flux is a key constraint on the amount of energy available for sensible and latent heating of the lower troposphere. Many studies have demonstrated that soil heat flux G is strongly correlated ...
Detail Enhancement of AIRS/AMSU Temperature and Moisture Profiles Using a 3D Deep Neural Network
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Convective Planetary Boundary Layer Interactions with the Land Surface at Diurnal Time Scales: Diagnostics and Feedbacks
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The convective planetary boundary layer (PBL) integrates surface fluxes and conditions over regional and diurnal scales. As a result, the structure and evolution of the PBL contains information directly related to land ...
An Empirical Investigation of Convective Planetary Boundary Layer Evolution and Its Relationship with the Land Surface
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Relationships among convective planetary boundary layer (PBL) evolution and land surface properties are explored using data from the Atmospheric Radiation Measurement Program Cloud and Radiation Test Bed in the southern ...
The Heated Condensation Framework. Part II: Climatological Behavior of Convective Initiation and Land–Atmosphere Coupling over the Conterminous United States
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: his is Part II of a two-part study introducing the heated condensation framework (HCF), which quantifies the potential convective state of the atmosphere in terms of land?atmosphere interactions. Part I introduced the full ...
The Heated Condensation Framework. Part I: Description and Southern Great Plains Case Study
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: his study extends the heated condensation framework (HCF) presented in Tawfik and Dirmeyer to include variables for describing the convective background state of the atmosphere used to quantify the contribution of the ...
Diagnosing the Sensitivity of Local Land–Atmosphere Coupling via the Soil Moisture–Boundary Layer Interaction
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: he inherent coupled nature of earth?s energy and water cycles places significant importance on the proper representation and diagnosis of land?atmosphere (LA) interactions in hydrometeorological prediction models. However, ...
Quantifying the Land–Atmosphere Coupling Behavior in Modern Reanalysis Products over the U.S. Southern Great Plains
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: he coupling of the land with the planetary boundary layer (PBL) on diurnal time scales is critical to regulating the strength of the connection between soil moisture and precipitation. To improve understanding of land?atmosphere ...
