Numerical Simulations of the Marine Stratocumulus-Capped Boundary Layer and Its Diurnal Variation
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: A high-resolution one-dimensional version of a second-order turbulence radiative?convective model, developed at Los Alamos National Laboratory, is used to simulate the diurnal cycle of the marine stratocumulus cloud-capped ...
Numerical Simulations of Observed Arctic Stratus Clouds Using a Second-Order Turbulence Closure Model
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: A high-resolution one-dimensional version of a second-order turbulence closure radiative-convective model, developed at Los Alamos National Laboratory, is used to simulate the interactions among turbulence, radiation, and ...
Seasonal Transitions in the Thermal Structure of the Mesosphere at High Latitudes
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Twelve acoustic grenade experiments were conducted during the period September 1968?February 1969 from Barrow, Alaska (71N). These measurements were intended to monitor the transition in the thermal structure of the ...
Rocket Observations of the Structure of the Mesosphere
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Pressure, density, temperature and wind measurements in the upper stratosphere and in the mesosphere resulted from a total of 53 rocket-grenade soundings conducted during the period 1960?1965. Most of the soundings were ...
Test of the Volume-of-Fluid Method on Simulations of Marine Boundary Layer Clouds
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The impact of using grid-averaged thermodynamic properties (i.e., neglecting their subgrid variability due to partial cloudiness) to represent forcings for condensation or evaporation has long been recognized. In particular, ...
