RISEvaluations of Land–Ocean Skin Temperatures of the ISCCP Satellite Retrievals and the NCEP and ERA Reanalyses
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: This study evaluates the skin temperature (ST) datasets of the International Satellite Cloud Climatology Project (ISCCP) D satellite product, the ISCCP FD satellite product, the 40-yr ECMWF Re-Analysis (ERA-40), the NCEP?NCAR ...
The First Transition of the Asian Summer Monsoon, Intraseasonal Oscillation, and Taiwan Mei-yu
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: This study reveals the close relationship between the first transition of the Asian summer monsoon (ASM), the tropical intraseasonal oscillation (TISO), and the mei-yu in Taiwan, which occurs climatologically between mid-May ...
Urbanization Effects on Observed Surface Air Temperature Trends in North China
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: A dataset of 282 meteorological stations including all of the ordinary and national basic/reference surface stations of north China is used to analyze the urbanization effect on surface air temperature trends. These stations ...
Application of New Precipitation and Reconstructed Streamflow Products to Streamflow Trend Attribution in Northern Eurasia
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: River runoff to the Arctic Ocean has increased over the last century, primarily during the winter and spring and primarily from the major Eurasian rivers. Some recent studies have suggested that the additional runoff is ...
On the Extreme Variability and Change of Cold-Season Temperatures in Northwest Canada
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The Mackenzie River basin (MRB) in northwestern Canada is a climatologically important region that exerts significant influences on the weather and climate of North America. The region exhibits the largest cold-season ...
Atmospheric Horizontal Resolution Affects Tropical Climate Variability in Coupled Models
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The effect of atmospheric horizontal resolution on tropical variability is investigated within the modified Scale Interaction Experiment (SINTEX) coupled model, SINTEX-Frontier (SINTEX-F), developed jointly at Istituto ...
Sensitivity of an Ocean General Circulation Model to a Parameterization of Near-Surface Eddy Fluxes
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: A simplified version of the near-boundary eddy flux parameterization developed recently by Ferrari et al. has been implemented in the NCAR Community Climate System Model (CCSM3) ocean component for the surface boundary ...
Assessment of Cloud Cover Characteristics in Satellite Datasets and Reanalysis Products for Greenland
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Clouds have an important controlling influence on the radiation balance, and hence surface melting, over the Greenland ice sheet and need to be classified to derive reliable albedo estimates from visible imagery. Little ...
Calibrating and Evaluating Reanalysis Surface Temperature Error by Topographic Correction
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Based on the observed daily surface air temperature data from 597 stations over continental China and two sets of reanalysis data [NCEP?NCAR and 40-yr ECMWF Re-Analysis (ERA-40)] during 1979?2001, the altitude effects in ...
A New Two-Moment Bulk Stratiform Cloud Microphysics Scheme in the Community Atmosphere Model, Version 3 (CAM3). Part I: Description and Numerical Tests
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: A new two-moment stratiform cloud microphysics scheme in a general circulation model is described. Prognostic variables include cloud droplet and cloud ice mass mixing ratios and number concentrations. The scheme treats ...
