An Analysis of Low-Level Jets in the Greater Ross Ice Shelf Region Based on Numerical Simulations
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: An analysis of the presence and location of low-level jets (LLJs) across the Ross Ice Shelf region in Antarctica is presented based on the analysis of archived output from the real-time Antarctic Mesoscale Prediction System ...
A Characterization of the Variation in Relative Humidity across West Africa during the Dry Season
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: he variation of relative humidity across West Africa during the dry season is evaluated using the Modern Era Retrospective Analysis for Research and Applications (MERRA) dataset and the method of self-organizing maps. ...
Performance of the Weather Research and Forecasting Model for Month-Long Pan-Arctic Simulations
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: he performance of the Weather Research and Forecasting (WRF) model was evaluated for month-long simulations over a large pan-Arctic model domain. The evaluation of seven different WRF (version 3.1) configurations for four ...
A High-Resolution Numerical Simulation of the Wind Flow in the Ross Island Region, Antarctica
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: A detailed description of the characteristics of the three-dimensional wind flow for the Ross Island region of Antarctica is presented. This region of Antarctica has complex topographic features, and the wind flow is ...
Dominant Regimes of the Ross Ice Shelf Surface Wind Field during Austral Autumn 2005
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: An analysis of the surface wind field across the Ross Ice Shelf, Antarctica, is conducted for austral autumn 2005. The airflow is divided into dominant wind regimes identifying similar wind patterns and the associated ...
A Weather-Pattern-Based Approach to Evaluate the Antarctic Mesoscale Prediction System (AMPS) Forecasts: Comparison to Automatic Weather Station Observations
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: ypical model evaluation strategies evaluate models over large periods of time (months, seasons, years, etc.) or for single case studies such as severe storms or other events of interest. The weather-pattern-based model ...
