A New Technique for Estimation of Surface Latent Heat Fluxes Using Satellite-Based Observations
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Monthly mean surface latent heat fluxes (LHFs) over the global oceans are estimated using bulk formula. LHFs are computed using wind speed (U) from the Special Sensor Microwave Imager (SSM/I), sea surface temperature (SST) ...
Impacts of Satellite-Observed Winds and Total Precipitable Water on WRF Short-Range Forecasts over the Indian Region during the 2006 Summer Monsoon
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Assimilation experiments have been performed with the Weather Research and Forecasting (WRF) model?s three-dimensional variational data assimilation (3DVAR) scheme to assess the impacts of NASA?s Quick Scatterometer ...
Surface Heat Fluxes over Global Oceans Exclusively from Satellite Observations
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: A new approach is introduced for determining surface latent heat flux (LHF) and sensible heat flux (SHF) over the global oceans exclusively from satellite observations. Measurements of wind speed (U), sea surface temperature ...
The Impact of Variational Assimilation of SSM/I and QuikSCAT Satellite Observations on the Numerical Simulation of Indian Ocean Tropical Cyclones
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: In this study, the fifth-generation Pennsylvania State University?National Center for Atmospheric Research Mesoscale Model (MM5) with three-dimensional variational data assimilation (3DVAR) is utilized to investigate the ...
Impact of Atmospheric Infrared Sounder Data on the Numerical Simulation of a Historical Mumbai Rain Event
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: In this paper, the three-dimensional variational data assimilation scheme (3DVAR) in the fifth-generation Pennsylvania State University?National Center for Atmospheric Research (Penn State?NCAR) Mesoscale Model (MM5) is ...
