Abstract: By using air?vegetation?soil layer coupled model equations as weak constraints, a variational method is developed to compute sensible and latent heat fluxes from conventional observations obtained at meteorological surface ...

Abstract: A new multivariable-based diagnostic fog-forecasting method has been developed at NCEP. The selection of these variables, their thresholds, and the influences on fog forecasting are discussed. With the inclusion of the ...

Abstract: his study proposes a dynamical performance-ranking method (called the Du?Zhou ranking method) to predict the relative performance of individual ensemble members by assuming the ensemble mean is a good estimation of the ...

Abstract: A vertical distribution formulation of liquid water content (LWC) for steady radiation fog was obtained and examined through the singular perturbation method. The asymptotic LWC distribution is a consequential balance among ...

Abstract: AbstractResponding to the call for new verification methods in a recent editorial in Weather and Forecasting, this study proposed two new verification metrics to quantify the forecast challenges that a user faces in ...

Abstract: An air?soil layer coupled scheme is developed to compute surface fluxes of sensible heat and latent heat from data collected at the Oklahoma Atmospheric Radiation Measurement?Cloud and Radiation Testbed (ARM?CART) stations. ...

Abstract: The New England High-Resolution Temperature Program seeks to improve the accuracy of summertime 2-m temperature and dewpoint temperature forecasts in the New England region through a collaborative effort between the research ...
