Potential Predictability of North American Surface Temperature. Part I: Information-Based versus Signal-To-Noise-Based Metrics
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: n this study, the potential predictability of the North American (NA) surface air temperature was explored using information-based predictability framework and Ensemble-Based Predictions of Climate Changes and their Impacts ...
The Feasibility of Estimating Ocean Surface Currents on an Operational Basis Using Satellite Feature Tracking Methods
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The feasibility of using a relatively new technique, often referred to as satellite feature tracking, for estimating ocean surface currents is described. Sequential satellite imagery is used to determine the displacements ...
The Probability Density Function of Ocean Surface Slopes and Its Effects on Radar Backscatter
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Based on Longuet-Higgins?s theory of the probability distribution of wave amplitude and wave period and on some observations, a new probability density function (PDF) of ocean surface slopes is derived. It is where ?x and ...
Simulating the Impact of Climate Change on Runoff in a Typical River Catchment of the Loess Plateau, China
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: lobal warming will have direct impacts on regional water resources by accelerating the hydrological cycle. Hydrological simulation is an important approach to studying climate change impacts. In this paper, a snowmelt-based ...
