An Assessment of Errors in the Simulation of Atmospheric Interannual Variability in Uncoupled AGCM Simulations
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: For the uncoupled atmospheric general circulation model (AGCM) simulations, the quantification of errors due to the lack of coupled ocean?atmospheric evolution on the characteristics of the atmospheric interannual variability ...
Extreme Precipitation Events in the Western United States Related to Tropical Forcing
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Three-day accumulations of precipitation for 2.5° long ? 2.0° lat areas along the west coast of the United States are used to rank precipitation events. Extreme precipitation events (those above the 90th percentile) occur ...
Climatology of Tropical Intraseasonal Convective Anomalies: 1979–2002
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Tropical intraseasonal convective anomalies (TICA) have a central role in subseasonal changes in the coupled ocean?atmosphere system, but the climatology of TICA events has not been properly documented. This study exploits ...
A Statistical Forecast Model of Tropical Intraseasonal Convective Anomalies
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Tropical intraseasonal convective anomalies (TICAs) play a significant role in the coupled ocean?atmosphere system and the Madden?Julian oscillation (MJO) is the primary mode of this variability. This study describes ...
