Climatology of Lake-Effect Precipitation Events over Lake Tahoe and Pyramid Lake
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: he frequency, timing, and environmental conditions of lake-effect (LE) precipitation over Lake Tahoe and Pyramid Lake in northern California and western Nevada were examined for the 14 winters (September?March) from 1996/97 ...
Assimilation of Dual-Polarization Radar Observations in Mixed- and Ice-Phase Regions of Convective Storms: Information Content and Forward Model Errors
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: ual-polarization Doppler radar has proven useful for the estimation of hydrometeor content and the classification of hydrometeor type. Recent studies have leveraged dual-polarization-specific information to produce improved ...
Bayesian Exploration of Multivariate Orographic Precipitation Sensitivity for Moist Stable and Neutral Flows
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: ecent idealized studies examined the sensitivity of topographically forced rain and snowfall to changes in mountain geometry and upwind sounding in moist stable and neutral environments. These studies were restricted by ...
A Shallow Cumuliform Snowfall Census Using Spaceborne Radar
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: he first observationally based near-global shallow cumuliform snowfall census is undertaken using multiyear CloudSat Cloud Profiling Radar observations. CloudSat snowfall observations and snowfall rate estimates from the ...
