A Hierarchical Dissection of Multiscale Forcing on the Springtime Mesoscale Convective Systems in the United States
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Mesoscale convective systems (MCSs) play a key role in regulating variability in the U.S. water and energy cycle. Here a hierarchical dissection of the multiscale forcing of springtime MCSs is carried out through a two-step ...
Two Issues Concerning Surface Frontogenesis
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: AbstractWith the Weather Research and Forecasting (WRF) Model specifically configured to simulate the intensification and evolution of an extratropical baroclinic wave, this study first investigates why cold fronts are ...
Rheology and Porosity of Ultralow Density Foamed Cement Pastes Derived from Ordinary Portland Cement and Hydrogen Peroxide
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: Foamed cement-based materials possess outstanding flame resistance, fire thermal, and sound insulation, but it is difficult to obtain the desired porosity and pore size due to the complicated equilibrium relations between ...
Response Surface–Based Finite-Element-Model Updating Using Structural Static Responses
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: With the aid of the response surface methodology, which is a combination of mathematical and statistical techniques, this paper presents a method for updating a finite-element model based on the measured static responses ...
A New Algorithm for Estimating Low Cloud-Base Height in Southwest China
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The prevalence of low clouds significantly affects flight safety in Southwest China. However, relevant cloud parameters, especially low cloud-base height (LCBH), lack accurate forecasts. Based on the hourly atmospheric ...
