Toward the Standardization of Mesoscale Meteorological Networks
Journal of Atmospheric and Oceanic Technology, 2020 AbstractAlthough they share many common qualities in design and operation, mesonetworks across the United States were established independently and organically over the last several decades. In numerous instances, the unique ways each network matured and developed new protocols has led to important lessons learned. These experiences have been shared in

Investigation of mesoscale meteorological phenomena as observed by geostationary satellite [PDF]
, 1982 Satellite imagery plus conventional synoptic observations were used to examine three mesoscale systems recently observed by the GOES-EAST satellite. The three systems are an arc cloud complex (ACC), mountain lee wave clouds and cloud streets parallel to ...

Model simulations of complex dust emissions over the Sahara during the West African monsoon onset [PDF]
, 2012 The existing limitations in ground-based observations in remote areas in West Africa determine the dependence on numerical models to represent the atmospheric mechanisms that contribute to dust outbreaks at different space-time scales.

Statistical investigations of flow structures in different regimes of the stable boundary layer [PDF]
, 2019 A combination of methods originating from non-stationary timeseries analysis is applied to two datasets of near surface turbulence in order to gain insights on the non-stationary enhancement mechanism of intermittent turbulence in the stable atmospheric ...

Zenith total delay study of a mesoscale convective system : GPS observations and fine-scale modelling [PDF]
Zenith Total Delay (ZTD) observations and model calculations are used to analyze a mesoscale convective system which yielded a large amount of precipitation over a short period of time in the north-western Mediterranean. ZTD observations are derived from

Can seasonal and interannual variation in landscape CO2 fluxes be detected by atmospheric observations of CO2 concentrations made at a tall tower? [PDF]
, 2014 The coupled numerical weather model WRF-SPA (Weather Research and Forecasting model and Soil-Plant-Atmosphere model) has been used to investigate a 3 yr time series of observed atmospheric CO2 concentrations from a tall tower in Scotland, UK.
