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.

Variations of the Selective Extinction Across the Galactic Bulge - Implications for the Galactic Bar [PDF]

open access: yes, 1995
We propose a new method to investigate the coefficient of the selective extinction, based on two band photometry. This method uses red clump stars as a means to construct the reddening curve.

Implementation of the CIP as the Advection Solver in the MM5

open access: yesMonthly Weather Review, 2003
Abstract A semi-Lagrangian-type advection scheme, cubic-interpolated pseudoparticle (CIP) method is implemented to the fifth-generation Pennsylvania State University–NCAR Mesoscale Model (MM5, version 3.4). A dimensional splitting CIP algorithm, with spatial third-order and temporal second-order accuracy, is derived to compute the advection in the MM5.

An anatomy of fog over Nova Scotia under a ridge on 8 September 2021

open access: yesQuarterly Journal of the Royal Meteorological Society, EarlyView.
Image from an aircraft traveling eastward at 1230 UTC (0930 Atlantic Daylight Time, ADT) on 8 September 2021. The view is to the southeast over the eastern coast of Nova Scotia. The leading head of the fog bank is in the image with its base on the sea surface.

Extreme Rainfall Mechanisms Exhibited by Typhoon Morakot (2009)

open access: yesTerrestrial, Atmospheric and Oceanic Sciences, 2011
Moderate Typhoon Morakot (2009) became the most catastrophic typhoon in Taiwan on record. The MM5 numerical experiments with and without bogus data assimilation (BDA) were used to investigate the extreme rainfall mechanisms in Taiwan associated with the ...

Observations and numerical simulations of a valley‐exit wind in the Alpine Bolzano basin

open access: yesQuarterly Journal of the Royal Meteorological Society, EarlyView.
The evolution and spreading of the nocturnal valley‐exit wind flowing from the Isarco Valley into the Bolzano basin, in the Italian Alps, are found to be influenced by the basin temperature stratification. Measurements and high‐resolution simulations show that a cold‐air pool favors an upward trajectory of the flow at the exit of the valley.

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.

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.

Verification and Sensitivity Experiments for the WISP94 MM5 Forecasts

open access: yesWeather and Forecasting, 1997
Abstract A statistical verification of real-time forecasts from the Pennsylvania State University–National Center for Atmospheric Research Mesoscale Model version 5 (MM5) examines several model biases noted in numerical forecasts prepared for the Winter Icing and Storms Project’s 1994 field experiment.

Estimation of the systematic error of precipitation and humidity in the MM5 model [PDF]

open access: yesAdvances in Geosciences, 2008
Abstract. To comprehensively diagnose model capabilities in simulating atmospheric flow including the relevant microphysical processes, the main prognostic fields of the MM5 model are compared with ERA40 reanalysis data. This approach allows to identify and compare meaningful features of model parameterization schemes and to quantify model errors ...
