Principal Components Analysis of Vector Wind Measurements
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The method of principal components analysis (also known as empirical eigenvector analysis) was generalized to the treatment of vector fields of data and applied to a 12-month record of mean hourly wind velocities from 10 ...
Dynamic-Kinetic Evolution of a Single Plume of Interacting Species
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The coupled dynamic and kinetic evolution of chemical species are considered for an assumed exhaust plume from an SST at proposed flight altitudes of about 20 km. A systematic effort is made to determine whether chemical ...
The Livermore Regional Air Quality Model: II. Verification and Sample Application in the San Francisco Bay Area
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Topographic, meteorological, source emission and atmospheric pollutant concentration data have been assembled for use in verifying the LIRAQ-1 and LIRAQ-2 regional air quality models in the San Francisco Bay Area. These ...
Case Study of Feedbacks and Synergisms in a Doubled CO2 Experiment
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: A method is described for analyzing the feedback and synergistic contributions of temperature, water vapor, cloud cover, surface albedo and CO2 to the change in the radiation balance at the top of the atmosphere due to a ...
