Impacts of the Bermuda High on Regional Climate and Ozone over the United States
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: bservations reveal that, in summer, westward extension of the Bermuda high enhances the Great Plains low-level jet (LLJ) that transports more moisture northward, causing precipitation increases in the Midwest and decreases ...
Regional Climate Model Simulations of U.S. Precipitation and Surface Air Temperature during 1982–2002: Interannual Variation
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The fifth-generation Pennsylvania State University?NCAR Mesoscale Model (MM5)-based regional climate model (CMM5) capability in simulating the interannual variations of U.S. precipitation and surface air temperature during ...
Regional Climate Model Projections and Uncertainties of U.S. Summer Heat Waves
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Regional climate model (RCM) simulations, driven by low and high climate-sensitivity coupled general circulation models (CGCMs) under various future emissions scenarios, were compared to projected changes in heat wave ...
Can CGCMs Simulate the Twentieth-Century “Warming Hole” in the Central United States?
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The observed lack of twentieth-century warming in the central United States (CUS), denoted here as the ?warming hole,? was examined in 55 simulations driven by external historical forcings and in 19 preindustrial control ...
Do CGCMs Simulate the North American Monsoon Precipitation Seasonal–Interannual Variability?
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: This study uses the most recent simulations from all available fully coupled atmosphere?ocean general circulation models (CGCMs) to investigate whether the North American monsoon (NAM) precipitation seasonal?interannual ...
