Modern Meteorological Computing Resources—the Maryland Experience
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The Department of Meteorology at the University of Maryland is developing one of the first computer. systems in meteorology to take advantage of the new networked computer architecture that has been made possible by recent ...
Hurricane Heat Potential of the Gulf of Mexico
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: It has been demonstrated that a large input of energy from the ocean is necessary to establish and maintain hurricane force winds over the sea. However, there has been no suitable data which could serve as a basis for ...
Chart VI. Isobars at Sea Level and Isotherms at Surface; Prevailing Winds, July 1933
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: This Chart is available in the print version.
A Delayed Action Oscillator for ENSO
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: A simple nonlinear model is proposed for the El Niño/Southern Oscillation (ENSO) phenomenon. Its key feature is the inclusion of oceanic wave transit effects through a negative, delayed feedback. A linear stability analysis ...
Interaction Subrange Spectra of Turbulent Wind Over an Air-Water Interface
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The nonlinear interaction of wave-induced air motion and the turbulent wind is examined in spectral space with the aid of a model developed through two averaging processes. The averaging periods are determined by the time ...
The Nimbus-7 Global Cloud Climatology
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: A total of six years (April 1979 to March 1985) of continuous measurements from the Temperature Humidity Infrared Radiometer (THIR) and the Total Ozone Mapping Spectrometer (TOMS), both on the Nimbus-7 satellite, have been ...
An Introduction to Some Historical Governmental Weather Records of China
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Some historical weather records of China in the governmental archives are discussed. The records in the pre-Qing period (before 1636) am briefly summarized and their use for the reconstruction of past climate is assessed. ...
Spectra of Internal Waves: In-Situ Measurements in a Multiple-Layered Structure
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The persistence of layering between 200 and 400 m depth in the Arctic Ocean has enabled construction of accurate internal wave amplitude traces from a 30-hr series of successive temperature profiles taken at 4-min intervals. ...
Development and Applications of ARM Millimeter-Wavelength Cloud Radars

Equilibrium Raindrop Size Distributions in Tropical Rain
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Observations of raindrop size distributions in Brazil were analyzed. For long lasting records and during periods when there was no evidence of rain falling through updraft, the observations indicate that equilibrium between ...
