A Model Intercomparison Study of Aerosol‐Cloud‐Turbulence Interactions in a Cloud Chamber: 1. Model Results

Journal of Advances in Modeling Earth Systems, Volume 17, Issue 7, July 2025.
Abstract This study presents the first model intercomparison of aerosol‐cloud‐turbulence interactions in a controlled cloudy Rayleigh‐Bénard Convection chamber environment, utilizing the Pi Chamber at Michigan Technological University. We analyzed simulated cloud chamber‐averaged statistics of microphysics and thermodynamics in a warm‐phase, cloudy ...

Factors Controlling Precipitation Onset and Maintenance: Inferences From Large Eddy Simulations of Two Afternoon Deep Convective Regimes Over Amazon

Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 52, Issue 12, 28 June 2025.
Abstract To investigate the environmental factors controlling the onset and maintenance of afternoon precipitation over tropical rainforests, two contrasting cases are created for large eddy simulations (LES) using GoAmazon observations: one features a single‐pulse rain dissipating quickly in earlier afternoon, while the other shows double pulses ...

Monitoring Point of External Wind Velocity Around Building Roof Top for Natural Ventilation Control

JAPAN ARCHITECTURAL REVIEW, Volume 8, Issue 1, January–December 2025.
ABSTRACT In order to measure external approaching wind velocity and direction for controlling natural ventilation (NV), anemometers are often installed at the roof top of mid‐ to high‐rise buildings. However, due to the complex flow field around roof top caused by separation flow, the accuracy of the measurement is not well‐known.

Effect of Splitter Angles on Characteristics of Mixing Layer Flow: A Numerical Study [PDF]

Journal of Applied and Computational Mechanics
This study investigates the effect of splitter angles on the aerodynamic flow of two free streams under incompressible conditions. The angle of the splitter is changed from 0 to 40° to simulate different wake structures on the slant.

What Are the Finger‐Like Clouds in the Hurricane Inner‐Core Region?

Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 51, Issue 23, 16 December 2024.
Abstract Finger‐like km‐scale features have been observed along the inner‐edge of the eyewall of intense hurricanes. But due to the limited availability of observations, many important aspects of these features remain unknown. In this study, we aim to offer insights on the nature of these phenomena based on a four‐day‐duration O(100 m) grid spacing ...
