A conservative numerical scheme for the multilayer shallow‐water equations on unstructured meshes
An energy‐conserving scheme is derived for the multilayer shallow water model, making use of the direct connection between energy conservation and the skew symmetry of the Poisson bracket for the model. A new mechanism is proposed to prevent layer interface outcropping.

Spatial--temporal mesoscale modeling of rainfall intensity using gage and radar data
Gridded estimated rainfall intensity values at very high spatial and temporal resolution levels are needed as main inputs for weather prediction models to obtain accurate precipitation forecasts, and to verify the performance of precipitation forecast ...

Atmospheric Turbulence and Mesoscale Meteorology: Tropical cyclone energetics and structure
Aircraft measurements of tropical cyclones that commenced during World War II allowed scientists of that era to paint the first reasonably detailed picture of the wind and thermal structure of tropical cyclones. This led to the first attempts to quantify

The variation of rainfall and its diurnal cycle with the Madden–Julian oscillation over coastal regions of NE Australia exhibit both large‐scale and local‐scale influences. The widespread increased rainfall is driven by large‐scale forcings, while the local enhanced rainfall is likely affected by mesoscale coastal processes. The variation of convective

Scientific Objectives, Measurement Needs, and Challenges Motivating the PARAGON Aerosol Initiative [PDF]
Aerosols are involved in a complex set of processes that operate across many spatial and temporal scales. Understanding these processes, and ensuring their accurate representation in models of transport, radiation transfer, and climate, requires ...

Utilization of high resolution short range weather forecast for agro advisory services
Agriculture is heavily weather dependent in India. The economy of the country is largely synchronized to the success of agriculture every year, as it contributes nearly 25% to gross domestic product (GDP). Farming community, planners and line department

During July 2021 there were widespread reports of flooding across the equatorial Maritime Continent. This analysis reveals how interactions between a system of convectively coupled Kelvin waves (CCKWs) and diurnally phase‐locked westward‐propagating inertio‐gravity waves during an active Madden–Julian Oscillation (MJO) caused these extreme rainfall ...

Implementation of an Urban Canopy Parameterization in a Mesoscale Meteorological Model
Abstract An urban canopy parameterization (UCP) is implemented into the fifth-generation Pennsylvania State University–National Center for Atmospheric Research Mesoscale Model (MM5) to improve meteorological fields in the urban boundary layer for finescale (∼1-km horizontal grid spacing) simulations.
