Impacts of Typhoon Track and Island Topography on the Heavy Rainfalls in Taiwan Associated with Morakot (2009)
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: loud-resolving ensemble simulations and sensitivity experiments utilizing the Weather Research and Forecasting model (WRF) are performed to investigate the dynamics and predictability of the record-breaking rainfall and ...
Trends in Precipitable Water and Relative Humidity in China: 1979–2005
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: nnual and seasonal trends of precipitable water (PW) and relative humidity (RH) at 850, 700, and 500 hPa are studied using the data from 106 radiosonde stations over China during the period 1979?2005. Analysis shows evidence ...
Observed Characteristics of Hail Size in Four Regions in China during 1980–2005
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The climatology and long-term trend of hail size in four regions of China are documented for the period of 1980?2005 using the maximum hail diameter (MHD) data obtained from the Meteorological Administrations of Xinjiang ...
Observing Strategy and Observation Targeting for Tropical Cyclones Using Ensemble-Based Sensitivity Analysis and Data Assimilation
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: n ensemble Kalman filter data assimilation system for the Weather Research and Forecasting Model is used with ensemble-based sensitivity analysis to explore observing strategies and observation targeting for tropical ...
Predicting Typhoon Morakot’s Catastrophic Rainfall with a Convection-Permitting Mesoscale Ensemble System
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: This study examines the prediction and predictability of the recent catastrophic rainfall and flooding event over Taiwan induced by Typhoon Morakot (2009) with a state-of-the-art numerical weather prediction model. A ...
Predictability of an Advection Fog Event over North China. Part I: Sensitivity to Initial Condition Differences
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: he predictability of a dense advection fog event on 21 February 2007 over north China (NC) is investigated with ensemble simulations using the Weather Research and Forecasting Model (WRF). Members with the best and worst ...
