Mesoscale characteristics of Antarctic Intermediate Water in the South Pacific

Acta Oceanologica Sinica, 2015
The Argo float observations are used to investigate the mesoscale characteristics of the Antarctic Intermediate Water (AAIW) in the South Pacific in this paper. It is shown that a subsurface mesoscale phenomenon is probably touched by an Argo float during the float’s ascent-descent cycles and is identified by the horizontal salinity gradient between ...

Characteristics of Mesoscale Convective Systems in the Philippines

2023
Mesoscale convective systems (MCSs) are organized clusters of convection that often bring in heavy to extreme rainfall, which can cause devastating effects such as flooding, landslides, and significant crop and infrastructural damages. Studies on severe weather in the Philippines, a part of the Maritime Continent where frequent and intense convective ...

CHARACTERISTICS OF MESOSCALE PRECIPITATION PATTERNS

Physical Geography, 1986
The spatial distribution of rainfall within two mesoscale areas, one a coastal plain, the other hilly, was studied by computing the standard deviation between the daily accumulations at the stations within each area (called the Index of Nonuniformity, INU).

Derivation of the thermal characteristics of mesoscale eddies

Acta Oceanologica Sinica, 2017
This study aims at explaining the relationship between thermodynamic characteristics and direction of rotation of mesoscale eddies (MEs). The geometric characteristics of the MEs are under the following assumptions: the structure of the MEs is symmetrical, and changes of oceanic physical variables are close to linear features in the radial direction in

Robust parametric models of runoff characteristics at the mesoscale

Journal of Hydrology, 2005
Many hydrologic studies report that runoff characteristics such as means or extremes of a given basin may be modified due to climatic and/or land use/cover changes and that the magnitude of these changes largely depends on the geographic location and the scale at which the study is carried out.

Variation characteristics of mesoscale lakes in the Tibetan Plateau

2023
Known as “Water Tower of Asia”, the Tibetan Plateau (TP) is widely distributed with numerous inflow lakes. Lakes on the TP are less affected by human actives and can be considered as a sensitive indicator of climate change, changes of lakes can well reflect the change of regional climate.

Mesoscale characteristics of a rare severe hailstorm event

Meteorology and Atmospheric Physics, 2019
This study analyzed the environmental field, physical quantify fields, convection parameters and radar echo characteristics of a severe hailstorm that occurred on June 18, 2013, due to a mesoscale convective system. The analysis was performed using ground meteorological data, sounding data and GFS-ANL (gfs 0.5° × 0.5°) reanalysis data in combination ...

On mesoscale characteristics of bora conditions in Yugoslavia

pure and applied geophysics, 1980
The local wind bora is a well-known phenomenon on the eastern coast of the Adriatic Sea, where steep mountains, the Dinaric Alps, closely follow the coast. In a relatively undisturbed atmosphere the coastal thermal effect and the dynamic effect of orography give rise to a cool downslope land breeze, the borino, which develops at night-time, and ...

Mesoscale Contact Characteristics under Current Transfer

2008 14th Symposium on Electromagnetic Launch Technology, 2008
Sliding metal-on-metal wear experiments were conducted at the meso-scale within a controlled environment chamber to evaluate the influence of current density, polarity, and humidified gas on system wear behavior. A meso-scale friction tester (MFT) was modified by enclosing the apparatus with an environmental chamber used for introducing humidified ...
