Deep Convective Organization, Moisture Vertical Structure, and Convective Transition Using Deep-Inflow Mixing
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: AbstractIt is an open question whether an integrated measure of buoyancy can yield a strong relation to precipitation across tropical land and ocean, across the seasonal and diurnal cycles, and for varying degrees of ...
Convective Transition Statistics over Tropical Oceans for Climate Model Diagnostics: Observational Baseline
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: AbstractConvective transition statistics, which describe the relation between column-integrated water vapor (CWV) and precipitation, are compiled over tropical oceans using satellite and ARM site measurements to quantify ...
A Process Model for ITCZ Narrowing under Warming Highlights Clear-Sky Water Vapor Feedbacks and Gross Moist Stability Changes in AMIP Models
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Deep Convection and Column Water Vapor over Tropical Land versus Tropical Ocean: A Comparison between the Amazon and the Tropical Western Pacific
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: he relationships between the onset of tropical deep convection, column water vapor (CWV), and other measures of conditional instability are analyzed with 2 yr of data from the DOE Atmospheric Radiation Measurement (ARM) ...
Environmental controls on tropical mesoscale convective system precipitation intensity
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Using multiple independent satellite and reanalysis datasets, we compare relationships between mesoscale convective system (MCS) precipitation intensity (Pmax), environmental moisture, large-scale vertical velocity, and ...
