Aircraft Noise Indexes for Effect Oriented Noise Assessment

open access: yesActa Acustica united with Acustica, 2010
This article discusses aircraft noise effect assessment with noise effect indexes, such as have recently been developed for noise monitoring purposes at the airports of Zurich and Frankfurt. Aircraft noise indexes are noise assessment instruments that express the overall effects of aircraft noise as a single figure which reflects the total amount of ...

New insights into convection‐permitting model simulations from a ZDR$$ {\boldsymbol{Z}}_{\mathbf{DR}} $$ diagnostic for raindrops

open access: yesQuarterly Journal of the Royal Meteorological Society, EarlyView.
A polarimetric radar forward operator to simulate differential reflectivity (ZDR$$ {Z}_{\mathrm{DR}} $$) from rain was developed to evaluate simulated storms in the Met Office Unified Model (MetUM) for two case days of the Wessex Convection Experiment (WesCon) field campaign. Vertical columns of ZDR$$ {Z}_{\mathrm{DR}} $$, indicative of strong updrafts,

Impact of Weak‐Constraint Four‐Dimensional Variational data assimilation on the prediction of a sudden stratospheric warming event in 2024

open access: yesQuarterly Journal of the Royal Meteorological Society, EarlyView.
The Weak‐Constraint Four‐Dimensional Variational (WC‐4DVAR) system markedly improved the analysis and forecasting of the 2024 sudden stratospheric warming (SSW) event. It reduced biases and enhanced 7–9 day predictions of temperature across the SSW life cycle, with the most pronounced gains for winds also during the critical onset period.

Evaluation of the influence of the number of blades and diameter on propeller noise

open access: yesВестник Самарского университета: Аэрокосмическая техника, технологии и машиностроение, 2016
The article presents the results of computational and experimental research of the effect of the number of blades and the diameter on the noise of the propeller operating at Reynolds numbers of more than 106. It is shown that an increase in the number of

Evaluation and assimilation of Arctic Weather Satellite data in the AROME‐Arctic forecast system

open access: yesQuarterly Journal of the Royal Meteorological Society, EarlyView.
The Arctic Weather Satellite (AWS), launched in August 2024, is a prototype for the future EPS–Sterna constellation of small satellites carrying an innovative microwave sounder. We present the first assessment of AWS in the regional AROME‐Arctic numerical weather prediction system, covering post‐launch calibration results and the impact of AWS ...

Lightning electromagnetic emission location using arrival time differencing (LEELA): An introduction to the Met Office's next generation Very Low Frequency lightning location system

open access: yesQuarterly Journal of the Royal Meteorological Society, EarlyView.
This paper describes the Met Office's new lightning location system LEELA. A brief overview of the upgraded hardware and geolocation algorithms is given. LEELA has improved lightning detection capabilities, especially at night. When comparing LEELA to the previous ATDnet system against ground truths LEELA has 100% storm detection efficiency within 5 km

If high aircraft noise exposure increases heart attack risks, what do we do about it? [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
Is high aircraft noise exposure actually dangerous to people’s health? Is there a good way of identifying ‘significant danger’? What are the policy implications for government and airport operators of people being exposed to significant danger?

Enhancing severe convection forecasts with microwave radiance assimilation in limited‐area models

open access: yesQuarterly Journal of the Royal Meteorological Society, EarlyView.
Microwave satellite radiances remain largely underexploited in convection‐permitting limited‐area models. We assess the assimilation of humidity‐sensitive radiances from the MHS instrument in the operational ICON‐2I model, improving the precipitation forecast of a severe convective event over the Marche region, Italy, substantially by correcting ...

Weibull Variational Autoencoder for Remaining Useful Life Prediction

open access: yesQuality and Reliability Engineering International, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Remaining useful life (RUL) prediction is a critical technology for preventing unexpected failures and reducing maintenance costs in modern industrial systems. However, traditional model‐based approaches are limited by the need for explicit mathematical modeling of degradation mechanisms, while data‐driven methods often require large‐scale ...
