Abstract: The authors study herein the convective cell life cycle and the cell generation process in mature, multicellular squall-line storms possessing well-developed subcloud cold pools using two- and three-dimensional models. The ...

Abstract: Hemispherically and temporally asymmetric tropical precipitation responses to global warming are evaluated in 13 different coupled atmosphere?ocean climate model simulations. In the late boreal summer, hemispherical averages ...

Abstract: ropical cyclones (TCs) moving northwestward/westward across northern Taiwan are defined to have a type-2 track. This study aims to analyze heavy rainfall associated with type-2 TCs in Taiwan, focusing on the modulation ...

Abstract: The annual cycle of precipitation over the western North Pacific and East Asian (WNP?EA) sector has five major periods: spring, the first and second wet periods, fall, and winter. In this study, processes that induce ...

Abstract: lobal warming mechanisms that cause changes in frequency and intensity of precipitation in the tropics are examined in climate model simulations. Under global warming, tropical precipitation tends to be more frequent and ...

Abstract: AbstractThis study examines the interannual variability of summer tropical cyclone (TC) rainfall (TCR) in the western North Pacific (WNP) depicted by the Climate Forecast System Reanalysis (CFSR). This interannual variability ...
