RISTemperature Profiles and Lapse Rate Climatology in Altostratus and Nimbostratus Clouds Derived from GPS RO Data
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: onstellation Observing System for Meteorology, Ionosphere and Climate (COSMIC) radio occultation (RO) refractivity profiles in altostratus and nimbostratus clouds from 2007 to 2010 are first identified based on collocated ...
Impacts of Ice Clouds on GPS Radio Occultation Measurements
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: athematical solutions accounting for the effects of liquid and ice clouds on the propagation of the GPS radio signals are first derived. The percentage contribution of ice water content (IWC) to the total refractivity ...
Recent Change in the Connection from the Asian Monsoon to ENSO
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The Asian monsoon and El Niño?Southern Oscillation (ENSO) are known to interact with each other. In this paper, four primary indices (the Indian monsoon rainfall index, the Webster and Yang monsoon index, the tropical-wide ...
Comparison of TC Temperature and Water Vapor Climatologies between the Atlantic and Pacific Oceans from GPS RO Observations
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: AbstractTropical cyclone (TC) temperature and water vapor structures are essential atmospheric variables. In this study, global positioning system (GPS) radio occultation (RO) observations from the GPS RO mission named the ...
Relationship of the Arctic and Antarctic Oscillations to the Outgoing Longwave Radiation
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: While several mechanisms have been suggested to account for the association of the Arctic and Antarctic Oscillations (AO/AAO) with atmospheric parameters, this paper focuses on the relationship with the atmospheric outgoing ...

Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: While several mechanisms have been suggested to account for the association of the Arctic and Antarctic Oscillations (AO/AAO) with atmospheric parameters, this paper focuses on the relationship with the atmospheric outgoing ...
Dynamical and Boundary Forcing Characteristics of Regional Components of the Asian Summer Monsoon
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: In this paper, the authors present a description of the internal dynamics and boundary forcing characteristics of two major subcomponents of the Asian summer monsoon (ASM), that is, the South Asian monsoon (SAM) and the ...
Feasibility of Retrieving Cloud Condensation Nucleus Properties from Doppler Cloud Radar, Microwave Radiometer, and Lidar
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: This paper explores the possibilities of using Ka-band Doppler radar, microwave radiometer, and lidar as a means of retrieving cloud condensation nucleus (CCN) properties in the stratocumulus-capped marine boundary layer. ...
A Symplectic Analytical Singular Element for Steady-State Thermal Conduction With Singularities in Anisotropic Material
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Modeling of steady-state thermal conduction for crack and v-notch in anisotropic material remains challenging. Conventional numerical methods could bring significant error and the analytical solution should be used to ...
Hydrologic Processes Associated with the First Transition of the Asian Summer Monsoon: A Pilot Satellite Study
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Results of a pilot study of the evolution of large-scale hydrologic processes associated with the first transition of the Asian summer monsoon in conjunction with the launching of the South China Sea Monsoon Experiment ...
