A Momentum Exchange Model for the Surface Layer over Bare-Soil and Canopy-Covered Surfaces
(American Meteorological Society, 2004)A multilayered turbulent transport model for the surface layer based on collisions between atmospheric layers is developed. The model can represent the average and perturbed components of turbulence relatively well, for ... -
Multidataset Study of Optimal Parameter and Uncertainty Estimation of a Land Surface Model with Bayesian Stochastic Inversion and Multicriteria Method
(American Meteorological Society, 2004)This study evaluates the ability of Bayesian stochastic inversion (BSI) and multicriteria (MC) methods to search for the optimal parameter sets of the Chameleon Surface Model (CHASM) using prescribed forcing to simulate ... -
Coastal Boundary Layer Influence on Pollutant Transport in New England
(American Meteorological Society, 2004)Air pollution episodes in northern New England often are caused by transport of pollutants over water. Two such episodes in the summer of 2002 are examined (22?23 July and 11?14 August). In both cases, the pollutants that ... -
Oblique, Stratified Winds about a Shelter Fence. Part II: Comparison of Measurements with Numerical Models
(American Meteorological Society, 2004)To evaluate Reynolds-averaged Navier?Stokes (RANS) models of disturbed micrometeorological winds, steady-state computations using a second-order closure are compared with observations (see Part I) in which the surface layer ... -
Results of Sun Photometer–Derived Precipitable Water Content over a Tropical Indian Station
(American Meteorological Society, 2004)A compact, hand-held multiband sun photometer (ozone monitor) has been used to measure total precipitable water content (PWC) at the low-latitude tropical station in Pune, India (18°32?N, 73°51?E). Data collected in the ... -
Nocturnal Low-Level Jet in a Mountain Basin Complex. Part I: Evolution and Effects on Local Flows
(American Meteorological Society, 2004)A Doppler lidar deployed to the center of the Great Salt Lake (GSL) basin during the Vertical Transport and Mixing (VTMX) field campaign in October 2000 found a diurnal cycle of the along-basin winds with northerly up-basin ... -
Tropospheric Ozone in Louisiana and Synoptic Circulation
(American Meteorological Society, 2004)Tropospheric ozone (O3) is a pollutant of increasing concern in many urban areas in the United States. There is an increasing need to understand the geographical and meteorological properties associated with O3, particularly ... -
Turbulent Transfer Coefficients and Calculation of Air Temperature inside Tall Grass Canopies in Land–Atmosphere Schemes for Environmental Modeling
(American Meteorological Society, 2004)A method for estimating profiles of turbulent transfer coefficients inside a vegetation canopy and their use in calculating the air temperature inside tall grass canopies in land surface schemes for environmental modeling ... -
A Simplified Diagnostic Model of Orographic Rainfall for Enhancing Satellite-Based Rainfall Estimates in Data-Poor Regions
(American Meteorological Society, 2004)An extension of Sinclair's diagnostic model of orographic precipitation (?VDEL?) is developed for use in data-poor regions to enhance rainfall estimates. This extension (VDELB) combines a 2D linearized internal gravity ... -
Rain Enhancement and Fog Elimination by Seeding with Charged Droplets. Part I: Theory and Numerical Simulations
(American Meteorological Society, 2004)A new method of droplet collision acceleration, with the purpose of rain enhancement and fog elimination, is proposed. According to the method, some fraction of the droplets is taken from clouds (or fog) themselves, charged, ... -
Application of Snowfall and Wind Statistics to Snow Transport Modeling for Snowdrift Control in Minnesota
(American Meteorological Society, 2004)Models were utilized to determine the snow accumulation season (SAS) and to quantify windblown snow for the purpose of snowdrift control for locations in Minnesota. The models require mean monthly temperature, snowfall, ... -
The Cost/Loss Utility Ratio
(American Meteorological Society, 1966)The cost/loss ratio (C/ L) is examined from the point of view of utility analysis. A simple adjustment factor is proposed to compensate for errors which may arise when dollar rather than utility values are used for C and L. -
The Influence of Climatic Factors on the Yield of Tea in the Assam Valley
(American Meteorological Society, 1966)An attempt has been made in this paper to study the effect of climatic factors on the growth of annually pruned tea and its components, the early crop, during April to June, the main crop during July to September and the ... -
The Flux of Atmospheric Water Vapor over the Caribbean Sea and the Gulf of Mexico
(American Meteorological Society, 1966)The flux of atmospheric water vapor has been examined as part of a more extensive study on general circulation and energetics in the area of the Central American seas. The analysis is based on twice daily radiosonde data ... -
The U. S. Navy Numerical Frontal Analysis Scheme: Further Development and a Limited Evaluation
(American Meteorological Society, 1966)Essentials of the U. S. Navy's numerical frontal analysis model, employing special second derivatives of the potential temperature field, are reviewed. The scheme is extended to include frontal-prognosis problems, visual ... -
Tornadoes Associated with Cyclones of Tropical Origin-Practical Features
(American Meteorological Society, 1966)The frequency of reports of tornadoes associated with tropical cyclones is shown to have increased during the past decade to a level worthy of professional attention. Tornado incidence is demonstrated to be related to the ... -
