Interdecadal Climate Variations Controlling the Water Level of Lake Qinghai over the Tibetan Plateau
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: AbstractUsing observed and reanalysis data, the pronounced interdecadal variations of Lake Qinghai (LQH) water levels and associated climate factors were diagnosed. From the 1960s to the early 2000s, the water level of LQH ...
A Numerical Simulation Algorithm of the Inviscid Dynamics of Axisymmetric Swirling Flows in a Pipe
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Current simulations of swirling flows in pipes are limited to relatively low Reynolds number flows (Re < 6000); however, the characteristic Reynolds number is much higher (Re > 20,000) in most of engineering ...
Physical Interpretation of the Attractor Dimension for the Primitive Equations of Atmospheric Circulation
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: In a series of recent papers, some of the authors have addressed with mathematical rigor some aspects of the primitive equations governing the large-scale atmospheric motion. Among other results, they derived without ...
The 2014/15 Snowpack Drought in Washington State and its Climate Forcing
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Evaporation/Boiling Heat Transfer Performance in a Sintered Copper Mesh Structure
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: In this study, experimental investigations regarding the heat transfer performance of an evaporator with capillary wick are presented. The capillary wick structure is composed of sintered multilayer copper mesh. The ...
Probabilistic Inference Coupled with Possibilistic Reasoning for Robust Estimation of Hydrologic Parameters and Piecewise Characterization of Interactive Uncertainties
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: his paper presents a factorial possibilistic?probabilistic inference (FPI) framework for estimation of hydrologic parameters and characterization of interactive uncertainties. FPI is capable of incorporating expert knowledge ...
The 2011 Great Flood in Thailand: Climate Diagnostics and Implications from Climate Change
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: evere flooding occurred in Thailand during the 2011 summer season, which resulted in more than 800 deaths and affected 13.6 million people. The unprecedented nature of this flood in the Chao Phraya River basin (CPRB) was ...
Elevated-Temperature Thermal Expansion of PTFE/PEEK Matrix Composite With Random-Oriented Short Carbon Fibers and Graphite Flakes
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: A combined experimental and micromechanics investigation is conducted on elevated-temperature thermal expansion of PTFE/PEEK polymer-matrix composite reinforced with randomly oriented short carbon fibers (CF) and graphite ...
