Abstract: The analysis of spectral energetics in the frequency domain has been applied to several observed datasets and those simulated by a GFDL general circulation model. There exists good agreement on the directions of energy ...

Abstract: The energetics of atmospheric motions are studied in the frequency domain using the two versions of the FGGE IIIb dataset, processed at GFDL and ECMWF. It is demonstrated that the frequency spectra of kinetic energy (KE) ...

Abstract: The interactions between low-frequency transients and synoptic-scale eddies are examined. The 300-mb data from 1981 to 1986 analyzed by the ECMWF are used to calculate the height tendency of the slow transients due to ...

Abstract: The multichannel singular spectrum analysis has been used to characterize the spatio?temporal structures of interdecadal and interannual variability of SST over the Pacific Ocean from 20°S to 58°N. Using the Comprehensive ...

Abstract: A 25-yr dataset is used to investigate the role of transient eddies in the dynamics of the Pacific?North American (PNA) pattern. Monthly mean vorticity and sensible heat flux divergences associated with submonthly transients ...

Abstract: A method is proposed to identify bridge collapse patterns based on the limit analysis theorem. The Erchong Floodway single-pylon cable-stayed bridge in Taiwan and the Kap Shui Mun twin-pylon cable-stayed bridge in Hong ...

Abstract: A brief review of some of the recent results on the 30 to 50 day time scale is presented in this paper. We have examined the divergent circulations on the time scale of 30 to 50 days during the FGGE year. The present study ...
