Abstract: In this paper we investigate a baroclinic boundary layer of cross-equatorial flow over the Arabian Sea with a fine-mesh (200 m) vertical resolution numerical model. The dynamical model utilizes a prescribed vertically ...

Abstract: In this paper we present many examples (based on 43 years of data) of a phenomenon of downstream amplification over the monsoonal belt. The specific finding here is the following sequence of events: 1) During northern ...

Abstract: The development of a comprehensive mesoscale atmospheric simulation system (MASS) is described in detail. The modeling system is designed for both research and real-time forecast applications. The 14-level numerical model, ...

Abstract: Mesoscale model simulations with and without diurnal planetary boundary layer heat flux are compared to a detailed surface analysis for a case of an isolated tornadic convective complex development. The case study, 3-4 ...

Abstract: This paper is an extension of an earlier study on the planetary boundary layer dynamics of the low level monsoonal flow over the Arabian Sea (Krishnamurti and Wong, 1979), where the long term steady state motion field for ...
