RISSpring Thaw and Its Effect on Terrestrial Vegetation Productivity in the Western Arctic Observed from Satellite Microwave and Optical Remote Sensing
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Global satellite remote sensing records show evidence of recent vegetation greening and an advancing growing season at high latitudes. Satellite remote sensing?derived measures of photosynthetic leaf area index (LAI) and ...
Obtaining Time Varying Pulsatile Gas Flow Rates With the Help of Dynamic Pressure Difference and Other Measurements for an Orifice Plate Meter
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Use of a conventional orificeplate meter is typically restricted to measurements of steady flow rates. For any gas flowing within a duct in a pulsatile manner (i.e., large amplitude mass flow rate fluctuations relative to ...
Thermal Anomalies Detect Critical Global Land Surface Changes
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: AbstractMeasurements that link surface conditions and climate can provide critical information on important biospheric changes occurring in the Earth system. As the direct driving force of energy and water fluxes at the ...
Study of Microstructure-Based Effective Thermal Conductivity of Graphite Foam
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: As a relatively new type of functional material, porous graphite foam exhibits unique thermophysical properties. It possesses the advantages of low density, high specific surface area, and high bulk thermal conductivity ...

Temperature and Water Vapor Variance Scaling in Global Models: Comparisons to Satellite and Aircraft Data
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: bservations of the scale dependence of height-resolved temperature T and water vapor q variability are valuable for improved subgrid-scale climate model parameterizations and model evaluation. Variance spectral benchmarks ...
Recent Climate-Driven Increases in Vegetation Productivity for the Western Arctic: Evidence of an Acceleration of the Northern Terrestrial Carbon Cycle
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Northern ecosystems contain much of the global reservoir of terrestrial carbon that is potentially reactive in the context of near-term climate change. Annual variability and recent trends in vegetation productivity across ...
Cluster Analysis of Downscaled and Explicitly Simulated North Atlantic Tropical Cyclone Tracks
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: realistic representation of the North Atlantic tropical cyclone tracks is crucial as it allows, for example, explaining potential changes in U.S. landfalling systems. Here, the authors present a tentative study that examines ...
Tropical and Subtropical Cloud Transitions in Weather and Climate Prediction Models: The GCSS/WGNE Pacific Cross-Section Intercomparison (GPCI)
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: model evaluation approach is proposed in which weather and climate prediction models are analyzed along a Pacific Ocean cross section, from the stratocumulus regions off the coast of California, across the shallow convection ...
