RISNear-Global Covariability of Hourly Precipitation in Space and Time
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: AbstractA detailed analysis of hourly precipitation from 60°N to 60°S for the covariability is performed at 0.25° resolution using the new CMORPH dataset. For all points, correlations are computed with surrounding points ...
How Often Does It Really Rain?
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: AbstractThe perception about whether a place is a nice place to live often depends on how often it rains (or snows). The frequency relates to how dreary the weather appears, and it is the duration much more than the amount ...
Changes in Twentieth-Century Extreme Temperature and Precipitation over the Western United States Based on Observations and Regional Climate Model Simulations
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: rends in extreme temperature and precipitation in two regional climate model simulations forced by two global climate models are compared with observed trends over the western United States. The observed temperature extremes ...
Changes in Moisture Flux over the Tibetan Plateau during 1979–2011 and Possible Mechanisms
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: hanges in moisture as represented by P ? E (precipitation ? evapotranspiration) and the possible causes over the Tibetan Plateau (TP) during 1979?2011 are examined based on the Global Land Data Assimilation Systems (GLDAS) ...
Intermittency in Precipitation: Duration, Frequency, Intensity, and Amounts Using Hourly Data
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: ntermittency is a core characteristic of precipitation, not well described by data and very poorly modeled. Detailed analyses are made of near-global gridded (about 1°) hourly or 3-hourly precipitation rates from two updated ...
Validation of the Coupled NCEP Mesoscale Spectral Model and an Advanced Land Surface Model over the Hawaiian Islands. Part II: A High Wind Event
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: A high wind event (14?15 February 2001) over the Hawaiian Islands associated with a cold front is simulated using the National Centers for Environmental Prediction (NCEP) Mesoscale Spectral Model (MSM) coupled with an ...
Extreme Precipitation and Temperature over the U.S. Pacific Northwest: A Comparison between Observations, Reanalysis Data, and Regional Models
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: xtreme precipitation and temperature indices in reanalysis data and regional climate models are compared to station observations. The regional models represent most indices of extreme temperature well. For extreme ...
Evaluation of WRF and HadRM Mesoscale Climate Simulations over the U.S. Pacific Northwest
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: This work compares the Weather Research and Forecasting (WRF) and Hadley Centre Regional Model (HadRM) simulations with the observed daily maximum and minimum temperature (Tmax and Tmin) and precipitation at Historical ...
Numerical Simulations of Sea-Breeze Circulations over Northwest Hawaii
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Sea-breeze cases during 23?28 June 1978 over northwest Hawaii are simulated using the National Centers for Environmental Prediction (NCEP) Mesoscale Spectral Model (MSM) coupled with an advanced Land Surface Model (LSM) ...
Changes in Moisture Flux over the Tibetan Plateau during 1979–2011: Insights from a High-Resolution Simulation
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: et precipitation [precipitation minus evapotranspiration (P ? E)] changes between 1979 and 2011 from a high-resolution regional climate simulation and its reanalysis forcing are analyzed over the Tibetan Plateau (TP) and ...
