From the Southern Ocean to the North Atlantic in the Ekman Layer?
(American Meteorological Society, 2004)Since the Southern Ocean encompasses the entire circumference of the globe, the zonal integral of the pressure gradient vanishes implying that the (meridional) geostrophic mass flux is zero. Conventional wisdom has it that, ... -
Supplement to Aircraft Particle Inlets: State-of-the-Art and Future Needs
(American Meteorological Society, 2004) -
Weather Modification—a Scenario for the Future
(American Meteorological Society, 2004)The ever-increasing severe economic damage imposed on national and world wide economies by severe weather, the need for sufficient and safe water resources for an increasing world population, and the threat of adverse ... -
Estimating Land Surface Energy Budgets From Space: Review and Current Efforts at the University of Wisconsin—Madison and USDA–ARS
(American Meteorological Society, 2004)Since the advent of the meteorological satellite, a large research effort within the community of earth scientists has been directed at assessing the components of the land surface energy balance from space. The development ... -
Progress in Heat Watch–Warning System Technology
(American Meteorological Society, 2004)Among all atmospheric hazards, heat is the most deadly. With such recent notable heat events as the Chicago Heat Wave of 1995, much effort has gone into redeveloping both the methods by which it is determined whether a day ... -

Prediction of Monsoon Rainfall and River Discharge on 15–30-Day Time Scales
(American Meteorological Society, 2004)Most attempts at predicting south Asian monsoon variability have concentrated on seasonally averaged rainfall over the Indian subcontinent some months in advance using regional and remote boundary effects as predictors. ... -
Evaluating Parameterizations in General Circulation Models: Climate Simulation Meets Weather Prediction
(American Meteorological Society, 2004)To significantly improve the simulation of climate by general circulation models (GCMs), systematic errors in representations of relevant processes must first be identified, and then reduced. This endeavor demands that the ... -
The Value of Wind Profiler Data in U.S. Weather Forecasting
(American Meteorological Society, 2004)An assessment of the value of data from the NOAA Profiler Network (NPN) on weather forecasting is presented. A series of experiments was conducted using the Rapid Update Cycle (RUC) model/assimilation system in which various ... -
Experimental Weekly to Seasonal U.S. Forecasts with the Regional Spectral Model
(American Meteorological Society, 2004)Since 27 September 1997, the Scripps Experimental Climate Prediction Center (ECPC) has been making near real-time experimental global and regional dynamical forecasts with the National Centers for Environmental Prediction ... -
