A Hybrid Bulk Algorithm to Predict Turbulent Fluxes over Dry and Wet Bare Soils
Publisher:
Abstract: Measurements made in the Columbia River basin (Oregon) in an area of irregular terrain during the second Wind Forecast Improvement Project (WFIP2) field campaign are used to develop an optimized hybrid bulk algorithm to ...
The Application of a Genetic Algorithm to the Optimization of a Mesoscale Model for Emergency Response
Publisher:
Abstract: Besides solving the equations of momentum, heat, and moisture transport on the model grid, mesoscale weather models must account for subgrid-scale processes that affect the resolved model variables. These are simulated ...
Air Temperature Variability in High-Elevation Glacierized Regions: Observations from Six Catchments on the Tibetan Plateau
Publisher:
Abstract: Near-surface air temperature variability and the reliability of temperature extrapolation within glacierized regions are important issues for hydrological and glaciological studies that remain elusive because of the scarcity ...
Assessing the WRF-Solar Model Performance Using Satellite-Derived Irradiance from the National Solar Radiation Database
Publisher:
Abstract: WRF-Solar is a numerical weather prediction model specifically designed to meet the increasing demand for accurate solar irradiance forecasting. The model provides flexibility in the representation of the aerosol–cloud–radiation ...
Statistical Cluster Analysis of Global Aerosol Optical Depth for Simplified Atmospheric Modeling
Publisher:
Abstract: Atmospheric aerosols originating from natural and anthropogenic sources have important implications for modeling atmospheric phenomena, but aerosol conditions can change significantly and rapidly because of their dependence ...
Atlantic Coastal Sea Level Variability and Synoptic-Scale Meteorological Forcing
Publisher:
Abstract: Anomalous sea levels along the mid-Atlantic and South Atlantic coasts of the United States are often linked to atmosphere–ocean dynamics, remote- and local-scale forcing, and other factors linked to cyclone passage, winds, ...
Characterization of Sunshine Duration in Western Equatorial Africa: In Situ Measurements versus SARAH-2 Satellite Estimates
Publisher:
Abstract: Western Equatorial Africa is one of the least sunny areas in the world. Yet, this has attracted little research so far. As in many other parts of Africa, light availability is mainly estimated using in situ measurements ...
Desert Climate Regionalization for Joshua Tree National Park and Surrounding Areas Using New Climate Network Observations
Publisher:
Abstract: A new amalgamation of weather stations in and around Joshua Tree National Park in southeastern California has allowed for objective climate analysis regionalization at a much finer scale than past studies. First, it sets ...
Influence of the Local Urban Environment on the Thermoradiative and Hydrological Behavior of a Garden Lawn
Publisher:
Abstract: Several urban canopy models now incorporate urban vegetation to represent local urban cooling related to natural soil and plant evapotranspiration. Nevertheless, little is known about the realism of simulating these processes ...
Anticipated Changes in Alaska Extreme Precipitation
Publisher:
Abstract: Flooding from extreme precipitation can have major impacts on society in Alaska. Understanding how these extremes may change in the future is needed for better planning under climate change. Data on future changes in extreme ...
