A New K–ε Turbulence Parameterization for Mesoscale Meteorological Models
(American Meteorological Society, 2022)A new one-dimensional 1.5-order planetary boundary layer (PBL) scheme, based on the -
An Analog Comparison between Rapidly and Slowly Intensifying Tropical Cyclones
(American Meteorological Society, 2022)To better understand the conditions that favor tropical cyclone (TC) rapid intensification (RI), this study assesses environmental and storm-scale characteristics that differentiate TCs that undergo RI from TCs that undergo ... -
A Modeling Study of Typhoon Lekima (2019) with the Topographic Influence of Taiwan
(American Meteorological Society, 2022)The global model FV3GFS is used to simulate Typhoon Lekima (2019), which exhibited track deflection when approaching west-northwestward toward Taiwan. The model successfully simulates the observed northward deflection and ... -
Neighborhood-Based Ensemble Evaluation Using the CRPS
(American Meteorological Society, 2022)The neighborhood-based ensemble evaluation using the continuous ranked probability score is based on the pooling of the cumulative density function (CDF) for all the points inside a neighborhood. This methodology can be ... -
The 150th Anniversary of the Leipzig Meteorological Conference: Standardizing Observations and Analysis Methods
(American Meteorological Society, 2022) -
Additional Evaluation of the Spatiotemporal Evolution of Rotation during Tornadogenesis Using Rapid-Scan Mobile Radar Observations
(American Meteorological Society, 2022)This study builds upon recent rapid-scan radar observations of mesocyclonic tornadogenesis in supercells by investigating the formation of seven tornadoes (four from a single cyclic supercell), most of which include samples ... -

Machine Learning Methods for Postprocessing Ensemble Forecasts of Wind Gusts: A Systematic Comparison
(2022)Postprocessing ensemble weather predictions to correct systematic errors has become a standard practice in research and operations. However, only a few recent studies have focused on ensemble postprocessing of wind gust ... -
Monthly Weather Review at 150 Years: Its History, Impact, and Legacy
(2022)Monthly Weather Review, one of the oldest continuously published meteorological journals in the world, publishes its 150th this year. In January 1873, the U.S. War Department’s Army Signal Service began producing this ... -
Vertical Vortex Development in Hurricane Michael (2018) during Rapid Intensification
(2022)The landfall of Hurricane Michael (2018) at category-5 intensity occurred after rapid intensification (RI) spanning much of the storm’s lifetime. Four Hurricane Hunter aircraft missions observed the RI period with tail ... -
The Reanalysis for the Global Ensemble Forecast System, Version 12
(2022)NOAA has created a global reanalysis dataset, intended primarily for initialization of reforecasts for its Global Ensemble Forecast System, version 12 (GEFSv12), which provides ensemble forecasts out to +35-days lead time. ... -
Implementing Hybrid Background Error Covariance into the LETKF with Attenuation-Based Localization: Experiments with a Simplified AGCM
(2022)Recent numerical weather prediction systems have significantly improved medium-range forecasts by implementing hybrid background error covariance, for which climatological (static) and ensemble-based (flow-dependent) error ... -
Tornadogenesis in a Quasi-Linear Convective System over Kanto Plain in Japan: A Numerical Case Study
(2022)The environmental characteristics and formation process of a tornado spawned by a quasi-linear convective system (QLCS) over Kanto Plain, Japan, are examined using observations, a reanalysis dataset, and a high-resolution ... -
Probabilistic Predictions from Deterministic Atmospheric River Forecasts with Deep Learning
(2022)Deep-learning (DL) postprocessing methods are examined to obtain reliable and accurate probabilistic forecasts from single-member numerical weather predictions of integrated vapor transport (IVT). Using a 34-yr reforecast, ... -
Observed Processes Underlying the Favorable Vortex Repositioning Early in the Development of Hurricane Dorian (2019)
(2022)Dorian’s evolution from a weak, disorganized tropical storm to a rapidly intensifying hurricane is documented through a unique multiplatform synthesis of NOAA’s P-3 tail-Doppler radar, airborne in situ data, and Météo-France’s ... -
Process-Based Evaluation of Stochastic Perturbed Microphysics Parameterization Tendencies on Ensemble Forecasts of Heavy Rainfall Events
(2022)Stochastic model error schemes, such as the stochastic perturbed parameterization tendencies (SPPT) and independent SPPT (iSPPT) schemes, have become an increasingly accepted method to represent model error associated with ... -
Formation, Thermodynamic Structure, and Airflow of a Japan Sea Polar Airmass Convergence Zone
(2022)The Sea of Japan (SOJ) coast and adjoining orography of central Honshu, Japan, receive substantial snowfall each winter. A frequent contributor during cold-air outbreaks (CAOs) is the Japan Sea polar airmass convergence ... -
Using SEEPS with a TRMM-Derived Climatology to Assess Global NWP Precipitation Forecast Skill
(2022)Monitoring precipitation forecast skill in global numerical weather prediction (NWP) models is an important yet challenging task. Rain gauges are inhomogeneously distributed, providing no information over large swathes of ... -
The Effects of Environmental Wind Shear Direction on Tropical Cyclone Boundary Layer Thermodynamics and Intensity Change from Multiple Observational Datasets
(2022)The relationship between deep-layer environmental wind shear direction and tropical cyclone (TC) boundary layer thermodynamic structures is explored in multiple independent databases. Analyses derived from the tropical ... -
