RISIntraseasonal Modulation of Synoptic-Scale Disturbances and Tropical Cyclone Genesis in the Eastern North Pacific
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: he influence of the Madden?Julian oscillation (MJO) on synoptic-scale waves, important precursors to tropical cyclones and tropical cyclogenesis, is investigated using a regional model of the eastern North Pacific basin. ...
Multiple Time- and Space-Scale Comparisons of ATLAS Buoy Rain Gauge Measurements with TRMM Satellite Precipitation Measurements
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: This study compares the Tropical Rainfall Measuring Mission (TRMM) microwave imager (TMI) and precipitation radar (PR) rainfall measurements to self-siphoning rain gauge data from 14 open-ocean buoys located in heavy-rain ...
In Situ Observations of Diurnal Variability in Rainfall over the Tropical Pacific and Atlantic Oceans
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: In this study, the diurnal cycles in rain accumulation, intensity, and frequency are investigated for the 1997? 2001 time period using measurements from self-siphoning rain gauges on moored buoys within the tropical Pacific ...
Observations of Variability on Synoptic Timescales in the East Pacific ITCZ
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Data obtained in the eastern Pacific intertropical convergence zone (ITCZ) during the Tropical Eastern Pacific Process Study (TEPPS) show a 3?6-day variability. The NOAA ship Ronald H. Brown collected surface meteorological ...
Rainfall and Convection in ERA5 and MERRA-2 over the Northern Equatorial Western Pacific during PISTON
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Assessment of CMIP5 Model Simulations of the North American Monsoon System
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: recipitation, geopotential height, and wind fields from 21 models from phase 5 of the Coupled Model Intercomparison Project (CMIP5) are examined to determine how well this generation of general circulation models represents ...
Tracking and Mean Structure of Easterly Waves over the Intra-Americas Sea
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Easterly waves (EWs) are prominent features of the intertropical convergence zone (ITCZ), found in both the Atlantic and Pacific during the Northern Hemisphere summer and fall, where they commonly serve as precursors to ...
The 1997 Pan American Climate Studies Tropical Eastern Pacific Process Study. Part II: Stratocumulus Region
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: An ad hoc experiment in the marine stratocumulus region to the west of Mexico was conducted from 29 August to 6 September 1997 as part of the Pan American Climate Studies Tropical Eastern Pacific Process Study cruise on ...
Horizontal and Vertical Structure of Easterly Waves in the Pacific ITCZ
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Outgoing longwave radiation (OLR) and low-level wind fields in the Atlantic and Pacific intertropical convergence zone (ITCZ) are dominated by variability on synoptic time scales primarily associated with easterly waves ...
Convection over the Pacific Warm Pool in relation to the Atmospheric Kelvin-Rossby Wave
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Deep convection over the western tropical Pacific warm pool is analyzed in terms of its relation to the atmospheric Kelvin?Rossby wave, which dominates the large-scale flow during the austral summer. The study uses Doppler ...
