Windstorm Extremes in a Warmer World: Raising the Bar for Destruction

Geophysical Research Letters
Extratropical cyclones occasionally escalate into devastating windstorms in Western Europe, causing damages worth billions of euros. However, their response to anthropogenic climate change remains uncertain, primarily due to limitations of coarse ...

Overlooked examples of cloud self-organization at the mesoscale [PDF]

, 2004
Stratocumulus clouds are common in the tropical and subtropical marine boundary layer, and understanding these clouds is important due to their significant impact on the earth's radiation budget.

A Thermal Plume Model for the Martian Convective Boundary Layer [PDF]

, 2013
The Martian Planetary Boundary Layer [PBL] is a crucial component of the Martian climate system. Global Climate Models [GCMs] and Mesoscale Models [MMs] lack the resolution to predict PBL mixing which is therefore parameterized.

Hydrological and meteorological experimentation at the mesoscale

Eos, Transactions American Geophysical Union, 1985
For the past few years, several sectors of the U.S. meteorological community have been actively planning and organizing the National STORM Program. STORM is an acronym for Stormscale Operational and Research Meteorology, and its first major project, called STORM‐Central, will focus on the central third of the United States [Interagency Team for STORM ...

From Predicting Solar Activity to Forecasting Space Weather: Practical Examples of Research-to-Operations and Operations-to-Research

, 2013
The successful transition of research to operations (R2O) and operations to research (O2R) requires, above all, interaction between the two communities.

Quality Assurance Procedures for Mesoscale Meteorological Data

Journal of Atmospheric and Oceanic Technology, 2010
Abstract Mesoscale meteorological data present their own challenges and advantages during the quality assurance (QA) process because of their variability in both space and time. To ensure data quality, it is important to perform quality control at many different stages (e.g., sensor calibrations, automated tests, and manual assessment ...
