Affordability of Meteorology Graduate Programs in the United States and Canada
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The authors surveyed 55 university departments in the United States and Canada that grant doctor of philosophy and/or master of science degrees in meteorology or the atmospheric sciences. Two-thirds of university departments ...
Lightning and SSM/I-Ice-Scattering Mesoscale Convective Systems in the Global Tropics
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: This study presents a systematic comparison of the distributions of mesoscale convective systems (MCSs) and lightning for 19 geographical regions classified as land, ocean, or a mixture of land and ocean between 35°N and ...
LGM Summer Climate on the Southern Margin of the Laurentide Ice Sheet: Wet or Dry?
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Regional climate simulations are conducted using the Polar fifth-generation Pennsylvania State University (PSU)?NCAR Mesoscale Model (MM5) with a 60-km horizontal resolution domain over North America to explore the summer ...
A Comparison Of WSR-88D Reflectivities, SSM/I Brightness Temperatures, and Lightning for Mesoscale Convective Systems in Texas. Part I: Radar Reflectivity and Lightning
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: This is the first part of a two part study. Part I compares radar data from the League City, Texas, WSR-88D and cloud-to-ground (CG) lightning data for a set of eight mesoscale convective systems (MCSs), which occur at ...
Polar MM5 Simulations of the Winter Climate of the Laurentide Ice Sheet at the LGM
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Optimized regional climate simulations are conducted using the Polar MM5, a version of the fifth-generation Pennsylvania State University?NCAR Mesoscale Model (MM5), with a 60-km horizontal resolution domain over North ...
