Measuring East Asian Summer Monsoon Rainfall Contributions by Different Weather Systems over Taiwan
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The east Asian summer monsoon (EASM) is characterized by a distinct life cycle consisting of the active, break, and revival monsoon phases. Different weather systems prevail in each phase following the change of large-scale ...
The Late-Spring Maximum of Rainfall over the U.S. Central Plains and the Role of the Low-Level Jet
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The seasonal rainfall over the U.S. central plains features a late-spring maximum. A spring?fall annual mode revealed from the empirical orthogonal function analysis on rainfall delineates a maximum center over the central ...
NAM Model Forecasts of Warm-Season Quasi-Stationary Frontal Environments in the Central United States
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Using a composite procedure, North American Mesoscale Model (NAM) forecast and observed environments associated with zonally oriented, quasi-stationary surface fronts for 64 cases during July?August 2006?08 were examined ...
Connectivity between Historical Great Basin Precipitation and Pacific Ocean Variability: A CMIP5 Model Evaluation
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: he eastern Great Basin (GB) in the western United States is strongly affected by droughts that influence water management decisions. Precipitation that falls in the GB, particularly in the Great Salt Lake (GSL) basin ...
Performance Optimization and Selection of Operating Parameters for a Solid Oxide Fuel Cell Stack
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: In this study, a model of current densities for a tencell solid oxide fuel cell (SOFC) stack is learned and developed due to the utilization of an improved backpropagation neural network (BPNN). To build the learning data ...
Enhancement of Afternoon Thunderstorm Activity by Urbanization in a Valley: Taipei
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Located in northern Taiwan, Taipei is a metropolis surrounded by hills and mountains that form a basin in which two river valleys funnel the surface airflow of this basin to the open sea. Because of the southwest monsoon, ...
Multidecadal Drought Cycles in the Great Basin Recorded by the Great Salt Lake: Modulation from a Transition-Phase Teleconnection
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: his study investigates the meteorological conditions associated with multidecadal drought cycles as revealed by lake level fluctuation of the Great Salt Lake (GSL). The analysis combined instrumental, proxy, and simulation ...
Observational and Synoptic Analyses of the Winter Precipitation Regime Change over Utah
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: revious studies have indicated a widespread decline in snowpack over Utah accompanied by a decline in the snow?precipitation ratio while anecdotal evidence claims have been put forward that measured changes in Utah?s ...
Are Greenhouse Gases Changing ENSO Precursors in the Western North Pacific?
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: sing multiple observational and model datasets, the authors document a strengthening relationship between boreal winter sea surface temperature anomalies (SSTAs) in the western North Pacific (WNP) and the development of ...
North Atlantic Hurricanes Contributed by African Easterly Waves North and South of the African Easterly Jet
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: A majority of tropical cyclones in the North Atlantic develop from African easterly waves (AEWs), which originate along both the southern and northern flanks of the midtropospheric African easterly jet (AEWS and AEWn, ...
