The Deep Convective Clouds and Chemistry (DC3) Field Campaign
(American Meteorological Society, 2014)he Deep Convective Clouds and Chemistry (DC3) field experiment produced an exceptional dataset on thunderstorms, including their dynamical, physical, and electrical structures and their impact on the chemical composition ... -
Cellular Network Infrastructure: The Future of Fog Monitoring?
(American Meteorological Society, 2014)evere visibility limitations resulting from fog may lead to acute transportation accidents and high losses of property and lives. Thus, reliable monitoring facilities are of extreme importance. Nevertheless, current ... -

Far-Infrared Radiative Properties of Water Vapor and Clouds in Antarctica
(American Meteorological Society, 2015)ater vapor and clouds are among the most important greenhouse components whose radiative features cover all the broad spectral range of the thermal emission of the atmosphere. Typically more than 40% of the total thermal ... -
Seasonal Forecasting of Global Hydrologic Extremes: System Development and Evaluation over GEWEX Basins
(American Meteorological Society, 2015)easonal hydrologic extremes in the form of droughts and wet spells have devastating impacts on human and natural systems. Improving understanding and predictive capability of hydrologic extremes, and facilitating adaptations ... -
Impacts of Dem Uncertainty on Estimated Surface Solar Radiation and Extracted River Network
(American Meteorological Society, 2014)igital elevation models (DEMs) have important meteorological, hydrological, and climatological applications. This research studies the uncertainties of six widely accepted global DEM datasets over China and their derivative ... -
Remote Sensing of Tropical Cyclones: Observations from CloudSat and A-Train Profilers
(American Meteorological Society, 2014)(CS) heralded a new era of profiling the planet?s cloud systems and storms with its launch in 2006. This satellite flies the first 94-GHz spaceborne Cloud Profiling Radar, and the data collected have provided a unique ... -
The IITM Earth System Model: Transformation of a Seasonal Prediction Model to a Long-Term Climate Model
(American Meteorological Society, 2014)ith the goal of building an Earth system model appropriate for detection, attribution, and projection of changes in the South Asian monsoon, a state-of-the-art seasonal prediction model, namely the Climate Forecast System ... -
The Mesoscale Predictability Experiment (MPEX)
(American Meteorological Society, 2015)he Mesoscale Predictability Experiment (MPEX) was conducted from 15 May to 15 June 2013 in the central United States. MPEX was motivated by the basic question of whether experimental, subsynoptic observations can extend ... -
Exploiting Existing Ground-Based Remote Sensing Networks to Improve High-Resolution Weather Forecasts
(American Meteorological Society, 2015)new generation of high-resolution (1 km) forecast models promises to revolutionize the prediction of hazardous weather such as windstorms, flash floods, and poor air quality. To realize this promise, a dense observing ... -
The DYMECS Project: A Statistical Approach for the Evaluation of Convective Storms in High-Resolution NWP Models
(American Meteorological Society, 2015)A new frontier in weather forecasting is emerging by operational forecast models now being run at convection-permitting resolutions at many national weather services. However, this is not a panacea; significant systematic ... -

LABLE: A Multi-Institutional, Student-Led, Atmospheric Boundary Layer Experiment
(American Meteorological Society, 2015)his paper presents an overview of the Lower Atmospheric Boundary Layer Experiment (LABLE), which included two measurement campaigns conducted at the Atmospheric Radiation Measurement (ARM) Program Southern Great Plains ... -
Increasing the Value of Uncertain Weather and River Forecasts for Emergency Managers
(American Meteorological Society, 2015)mergency managers (EMs) use National Weather Service (NWS) forecasts to prepare for and respond to severe weather events. To effectively facilitate such decision making, the NWS needs to understand this large and important ... -
Global Precipitation Measurement Cold Season Precipitation Experiment (GCPEX): For Measurement’s Sake, Let It Snow
(American Meteorological Society, 2014)s a component of Earth?s hydrologic cycle, and especially at higher latitudes, falling snow creates snowpack accumulation that in turn provides a large proportion of the freshwater resources required by many communities ... -
The Value of Dual-Polarization Radar in Diagnosing the Complex Microphysical Evolution of an Intense Snowband
(American Meteorological Society, 2014)east U.S. extratropical cyclone of 8?9 February 2013 produced blizzard conditions and more than 0.6?0.9 m (2?3 ft) of snow from Long Island through eastern New England. A surprising aspect of this blizzard was the development ... -
