A k–ε Turbulence Model for the Convective Atmosphere
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: A k–ε turbulence model for the stable atmosphere is extended for the convective atmosphere. The new model represents the buoyancy-induced increase in the kinetic energy and scale of eddies, and is consistent with the ...
The Impact of Ocean Surface Fluxes on a TOGA COARE Convective System
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: A two-dimensional cloud-resolving model is linked with a TOGA COARE flux algorithm to examine the impact of the ocean surface fluxes on the development of a tropical squall line and its associated precipitation processes. ...
Application of a Multigrid Method to a Mass-Consistent Diagnostic Wind Model
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: A multigrid numerical method has been applied to a three-dimensional, high-resolution diagnostic model for flow over complex terrain using a mass-consistent approach. The theoretical background for the model is based on a ...
Deposition of Aerially Applied BT in an Oak Forest and Its Prediction with the FSCBG Model
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Data are provided from 17 single-swath aerial spray trials that were conducted over a fully leafed, 16-m tall, mixed oak forest. The distribution of cross-swath spray deposits was sampled at the top of the canopy and below ...
Nocturnal Low-Level-Jet-Dominated Atmospheric Boundary Layer Observed by a Doppler Lidar over Oklahoma City during JU2003
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Boundary layer wind data observed by a Doppler lidar and sonic anemometers during the mornings of three intensive observational periods (IOP2, IOP3, and IOP7) of the Joint Urban 2003 (JU2003) field experiment are analyzed ...
Precipitation and Latent Heating Distributions from Satellite Passive Microwave Radiometry. Part I: Improved Method and Uncertainties
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: A revised Bayesian algorithm for estimating surface rain rate, convective rain proportion, and latent heating profiles from satellite-borne passive microwave radiometer observations over ocean backgrounds is described. The ...
