Convergence and Accuracy of Numerical Methods for Trajectory Calculations
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Computation of trajectories by a kinematic method requires the numerical solution of the differential equation by which the trajectory is defined. A widely used method is the iterative scheme of Petterssen which has ...
Parameterization of Convective Transport in a Lagrangian Particle Dispersion Model and Its Evaluation
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: This paper presents the revision and evaluation of the interface between the convective parameterization by Emanuel and ?ivkovi?-Rothman and the Lagrangian particle dispersion model ?FLEXPART? based on meteorological data ...
Interpolation Errors in Wind Fields as a Function of Spatial and Temporal Resolution and Their Impact on Different Types of Kinematic Trajectories
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: This paper discusses some of the uncertainties that influence kinematic trajectory calculations. The interpolation errors due to different interpolation schemes are examined by degrading high-resolution wind fields from a ...
A New Perspective of Stratosphere–Troposphere Exchange
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Stratosphere?troposphere exchange (STE) is important for the chemical composition of both the stratosphere and troposphere. Modifications of STE in a changing climate may affect stratospheric ozone depletion and the oxidizing ...
The Community Foehn Classification Experiment
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: AbstractStrong winds crossing elevated terrain and descending to its lee occur over mountainous areas worldwide. Winds fulfilling these two criteria are called foehn in this paper although different names exist depending ...
