Atmospheric electricity [PDF]

open access: yes
In the last three years the focus was on the information contained in the lightning measurement, which is independent of other meteorological measurements that can be made from space.

Moist orographic gravity wave drag parameterization reduces the bias of summer rainfall over the Tibetan Plateau

open access: yesnpj Climate and Atmospheric Science
Summer precipitation over the Tibetan Plateau (TP) significantly affects the regional and global climate. In this paper, the orographic gravity wave drag (OGWD) parameterization is revised by incorporating the moisture effect of saturated air into the ...

Recent progress in atmospheric modeling over the Andes – part I: review of atmospheric processes

open access: yesFrontiers in Earth Science
The Andes is the longest mountain range in the world, stretching from tropical South America to austral Patagonia (12°N-55°S). Along with the climate differences associated with latitude, the Andean region also features contrasting slopes and elevations,

The subtropical global plume in the Pacific Exploratory Mission-Tropics A (PEM-Tropics A), PEM-Tropics B, and the Global Atmospheric Sampling Program (GASP): How tropical emissions affect the remote Pacific [PDF]

open access: yes, 2002
[1] An extended southern subtropical plume of CO meanders>15,000 km around the world, gradually spreading around 20 S. This southern pollution plume is most noticeable in the burning season, southern spring; a similar subtropical plume appears in the ...

Measuring Clear‐Air Vertical Motions From Space

open access: yesAGU Advances
Measuring vertical velocity in the atmosphere has long been a challenge due to its small magnitude. Taking advantage of the modulation of free tropospheric relative humidity by vertical motions, we derive analytical relationships that allow us to ...

Modelling representation errors of atmospheric CO2 mixing ratios at a regional scale [PDF]

open access: yesAtmospheric Chemistry and Physics, 2008
Inverse modelling of carbon sources and sinks requires an accurate quality estimate of the modelling framework to obtain a realistic estimate of the inferred fluxes and their uncertainties.

Orography-Induced Gravity Wave Drag Parameterization in the Global WRF: Implementation and Sensitivity to Shortwave Radiation Schemes

open access: yesAdvances in Meteorology, 2010
This paper describes the implementation of the orographic gravity wave drag (GWDO) processes induced by subgrid-scale orography in the global version of the Weather Research and Forecasting (WRF) model. The sensitivity of the model simulated climatology

Some aspects of user needs for an air-launched, expendable free-drifting buoy [PDF]

open access: yes
Research objectives were determined based on user's needs in which an airlaunched, free-drifting buoy would significantly contribute to the accomplishment of these objectives.
