Critical Condition Modeling and Analysis in TMDL Development and Implementation
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: The USEPA’s Total Maximum Daily Load (TMDL) program under the Clean Water Act requires taking into account the critical conditions for stream flow, loading, and water quality parameters to develop TMDLs. However, properly ...
An Assessment of Droplet Size and Liquid Water Content Derived from Dual-Wavelength Radar Measurements to the Application of Aircraft Icing Detection
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Multiple parameters are needed to adequately describe the icing condition of clouds, yet those that can be accurately measured using remote sensors are usually limited. In this paper, a detection and classification method ...
Three-Body Scattering and Hail Size
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The three-body scattering signature is an appendage seen on weather radar displays of reflectivity behind strong storm cells. It is caused by multiple scattering between hydrometeors and the ground. The radar equation for ...
Control Port Influence on Swirl, Operating, and Flow Characteristics of a Mini Vortex Amplifier on Glove Box Service
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Vortex amplifiers (VA) use fluidic phenomena to modify flow through a containment breach, when used to protect glove box workers from exposure to the contents. The influence of control port geometry on swirl, operating ...
Climate Model Forecast Experiments for TOGA COARE
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Short-term (1?10 day) forecasts are made with climate models to assess the parameterizations of the physical processes. The time period for the integrations is that of the intensive observing period (IOP) of the Tropical ...
A New Model for Circular Cylindrical Kirchhoff–Love Shells Incorporating Microstructure and Flexoelectric Effects
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: A new model for circular cylindrical Kirchhoff–Love shells of flexoelectric–elastic materials with the centrosymmetric cubic symmetry is developed by considering both microstructure and flexoelectric effects. The couple ...
Application of MJO Simulation Diagnostics to Climate Models
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The ability of eight climate models to simulate the Madden?Julian oscillation (MJO) is examined using diagnostics developed by the U.S. Climate Variability and Predictability (CLIVAR) MJO Working Group. Although the MJO ...
Simulations of the 2004 North American Monsoon: NAMAP2
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The second phase of the North American Monsoon Experiment (NAME) Model Assessment Project (NAMAP2) was carried out to provide a coordinated set of simulations from global and regional models of the 2004 warm season across ...
The Mixed-Phase Arctic Cloud Experiment
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The Mixed-Phase Arctic Cloud Experiment (M-PACE) was conducted from 27 September through 22 October 2004 over the Department of Energy's Atmospheric Radiation Measurement (ARM) Climate Research Facility (ACRF) on the North ...
