RISCharacteristics of Wintertime Daily Precipitation over the Australian Snowy Mountains
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: AbstractThe relationship between orographic precipitation, low-level thermodynamic stability, and the synoptic meteorology is explored for the Snowy Mountains of southeast Australia. A 21-yr dataset (May?October, 1995?2015) ...
Cloudiness and Marine Boundary Layer Dynamics in the ASTEX Lagrangian Experiments. Part II: Cloudiness, Drizzle, Surface Fluxes, and Entrainment
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The Analysis of the Atlantic Stratocumulus Transition Experiment (ASTEX) Lagrangians started in Part I is continued, presenting measurements of sea surface temperature, surface latent and sensible heat fluxes from bulk ...
On a Natural Environment for Glaciogenic Cloud Seeding
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: ?climatology? of supercooled cloud tops is presented for southeastern Australia and the western United States, where historic glaciogenic cloud-seeding trials have been located. The climatology finds that supercooled cloud ...
A Numerical Study of the Interaction between Stratocumulus and the Air Overlying It
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The structure and evolution of stratocumulus cloud decks have long been recognized to depend upon a balance of numerous processes including the downward entrainment of the overlying free tropospheric air into the cloud ...
Objective Classification of Precipitating Convective Regimes Using a Weather Radar in Darwin, Australia
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: A clustering algorithm was applied to Frequency with Altitude Diagrams (FADs) derived from 4 yr of hourly radar data to objectively define four tropical precipitation regimes that occur during the wet season over Darwin ...
Measuring Entrainment, Divergence, and Vorticity on the Mesoscale from Aircraft
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Three independent techniques for measuring entrainment at the top of the planetary boundary layer (PBL) from an aircraft are discussed: 1) measuring the terms in the budget of a scalar and solving for the entrainment term; ...
On the Decline of Wintertime Precipitation in the Snowy Mountains of Southeastern Australia
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: ata from a precipitation gauge network in the Snowy Mountains of southeastern Australia have been analyzed to produce a new climatology of wintertime precipitation and airmass history for the region in the period 1990?2009. ...
An Evaluation of WRF Simulations of Clouds over the Southern Ocean with A-Train Observations
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: he representation of the marine boundary layer (BL) clouds remains a formidable challenge for state-of-the-art simulations. A recent study by Bodas-Salcedo et al. using the Met Office Unified Model highlights that the ...
Regional Variation in the Wet Season of Northern Australia
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: ariability in the wet season of tropical northern Australia is examined over its main months, November?March, with a focus on zonal differences between the western, central, and eastern domains, which encompass the northern ...
A Three-Year Climatology of Cloud-Top Phase over the Southern Ocean and North Pacific
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: oderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS) Level 2 observations from the Terra satellite are used to create a 3-yr climatology of cloud-top phase over a section of the Southern Ocean (south of Australia) and the ...
