Verification and Comparison of Polar MM5 and AFWA MM5 Forecasts over Alaska [PDF]

open access: yes, 2002
This research compares biases of the Reisner Mixed-Phase Explicit Moisture Microphysics graupel and non-granpel schemes to determine if including graupel and riming processes within the Fifth Generation Mesoscale Model (MM5) will lead to improved ...

Thermally driven circulation in a region of complex topography: comparison of wind-profiling radar measurements and MM5 numerical predictions [PDF]

open access: yesAnnales Geophysicae, 2006
The diurnal variation of regional wind patterns in the complex terrain of Central Italy was investigated for summer fair-weather conditions and winter time periods using a radar wind profiler.

Dry intrusions and warm‐core development in Medicanes: Insights from a multi‐case analysis and the peculiar evolution of Ianos

open access: yesQuarterly Journal of the Royal Meteorological Society, EarlyView.
Mediterranean tropical‐like cyclones show a clear seasonality, with September cyclones exhibiting the deepest convection and Ianos representing the most extreme case. While one or more dry intrusions are typically detected during the cyclone life cycle, Ianos instead features two much weaker descending airflows.

Validation of Atmospheric Water Vapor Derived from Ship-Borne GPS Measurements in the Chinese Bohai Sea

open access: yesTerrestrial, Atmospheric and Oceanic Sciences, 2016
Atmospheric water vapor (AWV) was investigated for the first time in the Chinese Bohai Sea using a Global Positioning System (GPS) receiver aboard a lightweight (300-ton) ship.

Modulation of turbulence and mesoscale structure in nested large‐eddy simulations with a gray‐zone parent domain

open access: yesQuarterly Journal of the Royal Meteorological Society, EarlyView.
The cell perturbation (CP) method mitigate mesoscale structural perturbations entering large‐eddy simulations (LES) from gray‐zone parent domains. The turbulent kinetic energy (TKE) bias‐filtering effect of CP increases with nesting ratio and is most pronounced under weakly convective conditions.

Summertime impact of convective transport and lightning NOx production over North America: modeling dependence on meteorological simulations [PDF]

open access: yesAtmospheric Chemistry and Physics, 2009
Global-scale chemical transport model simulations indicate lightning NOx dominates upper tropospheric O3 production above Eastern North America during summertime but vary in their estimates.

Multiscale numerical sensitivity simulations of a mesoscale gravity‐wave event

open access: yesQuarterly Journal of the Royal Meteorological Society, EarlyView.
High‐resolution WRF simulations of the February 14–15, 1992 STORM‐FEST event show that mesoscale gravity‐wave genesis occurs via geostrophic adjustment within an upper‐level unbalanced jet, while wave ducting governs maintenance. High‐resolution (1 km), improved physical parameterization, and targeted sensitivity simulations demonstrate that upstream ...

Model‐resolution impacts on all‐sky infrared radiance simulation and cloud‐dependent observation errors over Indonesia

open access: yesQuarterly Journal of the Royal Meteorological Society, EarlyView.
Numerical weather prediction over Indonesia is particularly challenging, because convection evolves rapidly and is modulated strongly by land–sea interactions across the maritime continent. To constrain forecasts better, there is substantial potential in assimilating all‐sky infrared observations, provided that the associated observation‐error ...
