RISDecadal Variations in Tropical Water Vapor: A Comparison of Observations and a Model Simulation
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Multiple satellite records of tropical-mean water vapor are compared with a general circulation model (GCM) simulation to assess the ability to monitor and to predict low-frequency changes in total precipitable water. ...
Time Constant Estimates for Radiosonde Temperature Sensors
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: o correct time lag errors in radiosonde temperatures the sensor time constant has to be known. Time constants are not published for some widely used sensors and, in some cases, available time constants disagree. This study ...
On the Accuracy of Vaisala RS41 versus RS92 Upper-Air Temperature Observations
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: AbstractThe accuracy of Vaisala RS92 versus RS41 global radiosonde soundings, emphasizing stratospheric temperature, is assessed from January 2015 to June 2017 using ~311 500 RS92 and ~65 800 RS41 profiles and three different ...
Modeled Climate Responses to Realistic Extremes of Northern Hemisphere Spring and Summer Snow Anomalies
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Northern Hemisphere (NH) snow cover extent (SCE) has diminished in spring and early summer since the 1960s. Historical simulations from phase 5 of the Coupled Model Intercomparison Project (CMIP5) estimated about half as ...
Creating Climate Reference Datasets: CARDS Workshop on Adjusting Radiosonde Temperature Data for Climate Monitoring
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Homogeneous upper-air temperature time series are necessary for climate change detection and attribution.About 20 participants met at the National Climatic Data Center in Asheville, North Carolina on 11-12 October 2000 to ...
