RISVertical-Plane Dual-Doppler Radar Observations of Cumulus Toroidal Circulations
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: igh-resolution vertical-plane dual-Doppler velocity data, collected by an airborne profiling cloud radar in transects across nonprecipitating orographic cumulus clouds, are used to examine vortical circulations near cloud ...
Estimating the Evaporative Cooling Bias of an Airborne Reverse Flow Thermometer
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Airborne reverse flow immersion thermometers were designed to prevent sensor wetting in cloud. Yet there is strong evidence that some wetting does occur and therefore also sensor evaporative cooling as the aircraft exits ...
Composite Vertical Structure of Vertical Velocity in Nonprecipitating Cumulus Clouds
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: ertical transects of Doppler vertical velocity data, obtained from an airborne profiling millimeter-wave cloud radar, are composited for a large number of cumulus clouds (Cu) at various stages of their life cycle, to examine ...
Impact of Global Warming on Snow in Ski Areas: A Case Study Using a Regional Climate Simulation over the Interior Western United States
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Dynamics of the Cumulus Cloud Margin: An Observational Study
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Aircraft observations of shallow to moderately deep cumulus clouds are analyzed with the purpose of describing the typical horizontal structure of thermodynamic and kinematic parameters near the cumulus margin from the ...
Frictional Anisotropy of Oriented Carbon Nanotubes/Rubber Composites and New Insight Into Its Mechanism From the Perspective of Frictional Interface
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Nanomaterials as reinforcement to enhance the properties of the composite and extend its potential applications have always shown great interest. As 1D materials, aligned carbon nanotubes (CNTs) reinforced composites could ...
Evaluating Seasonal Orographic Precipitation in the Interior Western United States Using Gauge Data, Gridded Precipitation Estimates, and a Regional Climate Simulation
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: AbstractThere are several high-resolution (1?12 km) gridded precipitation datasets covering the interior western United States. This study cross validates seasonal orographic precipitation estimates from the Snowpack ...
Comparison of Eight Detection Algorithms for the Quantification and Characterization of Mesoscale Eddies in the South China Sea
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: AbstractNumerous oceanic mesoscale eddies occur in the South China Sea (SCS). The present study employs eight automatic eddy detection algorithms to identify these mesoscale eddies and compares the results. Eddy probabilities ...
Ambient Factors Controlling the Wintertime Precipitation Distribution across Mountain Ranges in the Interior Western United States. Part II: Changes in Orographic Precipitation Distribution in a Pseudo–Global Warming Simulation
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: AbstractTwo high-resolution (4 km) regional climate simulations over a 10-yr period are conducted to study the changes in wintertime precipitation distribution across mountain ranges in the interior western United States ...
Ambient Factors Controlling the Wintertime Precipitation Distribution Across Mountain Ranges in the Interior Western United States. Part I: Insights from Regional Climate Simulations
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: AbstractThis study analyzes the control of upstream conditions on the distribution of wintertime precipitation across mountain ranges in the interior western United States using 10 winters of high-resolution regional climate ...
