Using the Second-Generation GEFS Reforecasts to Predict Ceiling, Visibility, and Aviation Flight Category
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: AbstractThis study is an aviation-based application of NOAA?s second-generation medium-range Global Ensemble Forecast System Reforecast (GEFS/R; i.e., hindcast or retrospective forecast) dataset. The study produced a ...
Simulating Radiative Fluxes through Southeastern Pacific Stratocumulus Clouds during VOCALS-REx
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: ABSTRACTTime series of solar and thermal infrared radiative flux profiles are simulated with the Rapid Radiative Transfer Model (RRTM) using a hierarchy of constraints from radar reflectivity and passive microwave cloud ...
The Three-Dimensional Distribution of Clouds over the Southern Hemisphere High Latitudes
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: he authors exploit three years of data from the CloudSat and Cloud?Aerosol Lidar and Infrared Pathfinder Satellite Observation (CALIPSO) satellites to document for the first time the seasonally varying vertical structure ...
The Time Scales of Variability of Marine Low Clouds
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: ultidecade global regressions of inversion strength, vertical velocity, and sea surface temperature (SST) on low cloud amount, from subdaily to multiyear time scales, refute the dominance of seasonal inversion strength on ...
