Air Pollutant Transport in a Coastal Environment. Part I: Two-Dimensional Simulations of Sea-Breeze and Mountain Effects
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Over the southern California coastal region, observations of the vertical distributions of pollutants show that maximum concentrations can occur within temperature inversion layers well above the surface. A mesoscale model ...
Smoke and Dust Particles of Meteoric Origin in the Mesosphere and Stratosphere
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: A height profile of ablated mass from meteors is calculated, assuming an incoming mass of 10?16 g cm?2 s?1 (44 metric tons per day) and the velocity distribution of Southworth and Sekanina, which has a mean of 14.5 km s?1. ...
A Locally One-Dimensional Semi-Implicit Scheme for Global Gridpoint Shallow-Water Models
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: A splitting method is presented for eliminating the need to directly solve for a two-dimensional Helmholtz-type difference equation in a semi-implicit scheme for a global gridpoint shallow-water model. In the proposed ...
