Dimension Characteristics and Precipitation Efficiency of Cumulonimbus Clouds in the Region Far South from the Mei-Yu Front over the Eastern Asian Continent
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Dimension characteristics in precipitation properties of cumulonimbus clouds are basic parameters in understanding the vertical transport of water vapor in the atmosphere. In this study, the dimension characteristics and ...
Numerical Simulation of Cyclone Sidr Using a Cloud-Resolving Model: Characteristics and Formation Process of an Outer Rainband
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: yclone Sidr, one of the most devastating tropical cyclones that resulted in several thousand deaths and substantial damages, developed in the north Indian Ocean and made landfall over the Bangladesh coast on 15 November ...
Structure and Maintenance Mechanism of Long-Lived Concentric Eyewalls Associated with Simulated Typhoon Bolaven (2012)
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: AbstractTyphoons with long-lived concentric eyewalls (CEs) are more intense than those with short-lived CEs. It is important for more accurate prediction of typhoon intensity to understand the maintenance mechanism of the ...
Numerical Simulations of Local Circulation and Cumulus Generation over the Loess Plateau, China
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The Loess Plateau of China consists of dissected flat tablelands with steep gullies. To evaluate the effect of topography on local circulation and cumulus generation over the Loess Plateau, numerical simulations of atmospheric ...
Midtropospheric Anticyclonic Vortex Street Associated with a Cloud Band near a Cold Front
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The characteristics and formation mechanism of an anticyclonic vortex street of meso-? scale, which appeared near a cold front around the Ryukyu Islands, Japan, on 11 April 1995, were examined by an analysis of observational ...
A Multimodel Intercomparison of an Intense Typhoon in Future, Warmer Climates by Four 5-km-Mesh Models
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: AbstractIntense tropical cyclones (TCs) sometimes cause huge disasters, so it is imperative to explore the impacts of climate change on such TCs. Therefore, the authors conducted numerical simulations of the most destructive ...
Characteristics of Vertical Circulation in the Convective Boundary Layer over the Huaihe River Basin in China in the Early Summer of 2004
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The purpose of this study is to clarify the characteristics of the convective boundary layer (CBL) over a humid terrestrial area, the Huaihe River basin in China, which is covered by a large, nearly flat plain with uniform ...
Precipitation Features Observed by Doppler Radar at Tuktoyaktuk, Northwest Territories, Canada, during the Beaufort and Arctic Storms Experiment
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: In the fall of 1994, the Beaufort and Arctic Storms Experiment (BASE) was held to collect information on the structure and evolution of mesoscale weather systems over the southern Beaufort Sea and the Mackenzie River delta ...
A Numerical Study on the Effects of Taiwan Topography on a Convective Line during the Mei-Yu Season
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: During the morning hours on 23 May 2002, a convective line associated with a mei-yu front brought heavy rainfall along the coast of central Taiwan under favorable synoptic conditions of warm air advection and large convective ...
Wintertime Supercell Thunderstorms in a Subtropical Environment: Numerical Simulation
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Following an earlier diagnostic study, the present paper performs numerical simulations of the rare wintertime supercell storms during 19?20 December 2002 in a subtropical environment near Taiwan. Using Japan Meteorology ...
