FORECASTING PRECIPITATION WITH THE AID OF A HIGH-SPEED ELECTRONIC COMPUTER
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: A high-speed electronic computer has been programmed to prepare cloud and precipitation forecasts for the Northern Hemisphere. The basic input data are derived from the Joint Numerical Weather Prediction Unit's two-level ...
CLOUDS OVER THE EQUATORIAL AND TROPICAL PACIFIC AN INVESTIGATION BASED ON TIROS SATELLITE AND JET AIRCRAFT OBSERVATIONS
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: A series of 35-mm. color slides and 16-mm. motion pictures of clouds were taken from a jet aircraft flying at about 30,000 ft. The aircraft flew from Honolulu to Papeete to Los Angeles and returned to Honolulu, twice ...
COMPUTER ANALYSIS AND FORECASTING IN THE TROPICS
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Computer-prepared analyses of the upper-air wind field are being made for several levels for the tropical Pacific Ocean area of both the Northern and Southern Hemispheres. Computer analyses compare favorably with conventional ...
ON THE CONSERVATION OF FINITE-DIFFERENCE ABSOLUTE VORTICITY IN BAROTROPIC FORECASTS
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: In solving the differential equations used in numerical weather prediction, one resorts to the use of finite-difference techniques. In the barotropic model it is assumed that the absolute vorticity is conserved. Even though ...
FORECASTING IN THE TROPICS WITH A BAROTROPIC ATMOSPHERIC MODEL
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: A series of barotropic forecasts has been prepared for several upper-air levels in the tropical Pacific. The governing equation is the vorticity equation for a barotropic non-divergent atmosphere. The input data are ...
