The Evolution of Frontal-Geostrophic Vortices in a Two-Layer Ocean
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The properties of large amplitude vortices are numerically investigated using a set of two-layer primitive equations. Numerical experiments are systematically conducted for the f and ? plants, quasigeostrophic (small ...
Mechanism of Orographic Precipitation around the Meghalaya Plateau Associated with Intraseasonal Oscillation and the Diurnal Cycle
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: esoscale processes that cause tremendous amounts of precipitation around the Meghalaya Plateau, northeast India, were investigated using a regional atmospheric model, with a particular focus on the possible role of an ...
Diurnal Cycle of Convective Instability around the Central Mountains in Japan during the Warm Season
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Convective rainfall often shows a clear diurnal cycle. The nighttime peak of convective activity prevails in various regions near the world's mountains. The influence of the water vapor and convective instability upon ...
Closure to “<i>Forces Acting on Floc and Strength of Floc</i>” by Tomonori Matsuo and Hideaki Unno (June, 1981)
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
On the Evolution of Nonlinear Planetary Eddies Larger than the Radius of Deformation
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The properties of a new equation governing the evolution of planetary eddies larger than the radius of deformation are numerically investigated. Two types of dynamical balances showing remarkable solitary behavior are ...
How Does the Tibetan Plateau Affect the Transition of Indian Monsoon Rainfall?
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The roles of the Tibetan Plateau (TP) upon the transition of precipitation in the south Asian summer monsoon are investigated using a simplified regional climate model. Before the onset of the south Asian monsoon, descending ...
Two Different Aperiodic Phases of Wind-Driven Ocean Circulation in a Double-Gyre, Two-Layer Shallow-Water Model
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: A two-layer shallow-water model is used to investigate the transition of wind-driven double-gyre circulation from laminar flow to turbulence as the Reynolds number (Re) is systematically increased. Two distinctly different ...
An Experimental and Numerical Study of the Internal Wave Generation by Tide—Topography Interaction
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: A stratified fluid response to barotropic oscillatory now over a large-amplitude obstacle is examined on the basis of the results of laboratory and numerical experiments. It is demonstrated that, when the obstacle height ...
Future Changes in Monthly Extreme Precipitation in Japan Using Large-Ensemble Regional Climate Simulations
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: AbstractThis study investigated future changes in monthly extreme precipitation in Japan during summer (June?August). The uncertainties in estimating extreme monthly precipitation were analyzed using large-ensemble regional ...
A Two-Dimensional Numerical Study on Diurnal Cycle of Mountain Lee Precipitation
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Simple numerical experiments using a two-dimensional model were conducted to investigate the diurnal variation of water vapor in the lee of a mountain range, which strongly affects nighttime precipitation. In the daytime, ...
