The Uncoordinated Giant II: Why U.S. Operational Numerical Weather Prediction Is Still Lagging and How to Fix It
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
The Uncoordinated Giant: Why U.S. Weather Research and Prediction Are Not Achieving Their Potential
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Although the large U.S. meteorological community has made significant strides in weather diagnosis and prediction, progress has been slowed by a lack of cooperation, coordination, and pooling of resources. This paper ...
Topographically Forced Convergence in Western Washington State
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Several times a year when the low-level winds from off the Pacific Ocean are within a narrow range of speed and direction, air passes both north and south of the Olympic Mountains of Washington State and is forced to ...
Effect of Reynolds Number on Deposition in Fuels Flowing Over Heated Surfaces
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: An increasing demand is being put on the fuel as a heat sink in modern aircraft. In the end, the fuel flows through the atomizer, which is both the hottest part in the thermal history of the fuel and the most critical for ...
Nowcasting: The Promise of New Technologies of Communication, Modeling, and Observation
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: g combines a description of the current state of the atmosphere and a short-term forecast of how the atmosphere will evolve during the next several hours. A convergence of technical developments has set the stage for a ...
The Topographically Forced Diurnal Circulations of Western Washington State and Their Influence on Precipitation
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Western Washington State is a region where both land-water and topographic contrasts result in diurnal circulations that produce significant diurnal variations in parameters such as wind speed and direction, cloudiness and ...
Comparison of Four ERS-1 Scatterometer Wind Retrieval Algorithms with Buoy Measurements
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Wind velocity retrievals from the ERS-1 scatterometer are compared with extensive high-quality hourly buoy winds using four different algorithms in two oceanic regions during 1994. The retrieved winds exhibit significantly ...
A Linear Primitive Equation Model of African Wave Disturbances
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: A 10-level, linearized primitive equation model with boundary-layer friction, latent heating and cumulus momentum mixing is used to explore the instability properties of the environment of African wave disturbances. It is ...
