RISThe Formation of Parasitic Capillary Ripples on Gravity–Capillary Waves and the Underlying Vortical Structures
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The evolution of moderately short, steep two-dimensional gravity?capillary waves, from the onset of the parasitic capillary ripples to a fully developed quasi-steady stage, is studied numerically using a spectrally accurate ...
Enhanced Energy Dissipation by Parasitic Capillaries on Short Gravity–Capillary Waves
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The increased energy dissipation caused by the formation of parasitic capillary wavelets on moderately short, steep gravity?capillary waves is studied numerically. This study focuses on understanding the mechanism leading ...
Radiative Effects on the Diffusional Growth of Ice Particles in Cirrus Clouds
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: At Colorado State University the Regional Atmospheric Modeling System (RAMS) has been used to study the radiative effect on the diffusional growth of ice particles in cirrus clouds. Using soundings extracted from a mesoscale ...
Numerical Evidence of Turbulence Generated by Nonbreaking Surface Waves
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: umerical simulation of monochromatic surface waves propagating over a turbulent field is conducted to reveal the mechanism of turbulence production by nonbreaking waves. The numerical model solves the primitive equations ...
Dual-Quaternion-Based Translation-Rotation-Vibration Integrated Dynamics Modeling for Flexible Spacecraft
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: In this paper, we investigate a leader-follower spacecraft formation flying (SFF) mission, which is comprised of two identical spacecraft carrying large-scale antenna arrays. The mission requires spaced antenna arrays and ...
Large-Eddy Simulations of the 26 November 1991 FIRE II Cirrus Case
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Large-eddy simulations (LESs) were performed to study the dynamical, microphysical, and radiative processes in the 26 November 1991 FIRE II cirrus event. The LES model inherits the framework of the RAMS version 3b, developed ...
On the Formation of Coherent Vortices beneath Nonbreaking Free-Propagating Surface Waves
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: umerical simulations of monochromatic surface waves freely propagating over an initially quiescent flow field are conducted and found to reveal an array of quasi-streamwise vortices of alternating orientation in a manner ...
Understanding the Influence of Assimilating Subsets of Enhanced Atmospheric Motion Vectors on Numerical Analyses and Forecasts of Tropical Cyclone Track and Intensity with an Ensemble Kalman Filter
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: ecent studies have shown that assimilating enhanced satellite-derived atmospheric motion vectors (AMVs) has improved mesoscale forecast of tropical cyclones (TC) track and intensity. The authors conduct data-denial experiments ...
Influence of Assimilating Satellite-Derived Atmospheric Motion Vector Observations on Numerical Analyses and Forecasts of Tropical Cyclone Track and Intensity
