Assessing Water Resource Issues in the US Pacific North West Region
In a country where ground water ranks highly as one of the nation’s most important natural resources, water stands out as a strategic item in the US West. For that, agricultural, commercial and urban communities require water for their yearly operations. Even though, groundwater serves cities and rural areas, it sustains irrigation and industries.

Association of the Indian summer monsoon with the northern hemisphere mid-latitude circulation [PDF]
The association between the mid-latitude circulation and rainfall over the Indian region on an intraseasonal time-scale is investigated by considering 11 years (1974-1984) of Northern Hemisphere 500 hPa geopotential heights and rainfall data for the ...

Asian summer monsoon responses under RCP4.5 and RCP8.5 scenarios in CESM large ensemble simulations
The response of the Asian Summer Monsoon (ASM) circulation to the Representative Concentration Pathway 4.5 and 8.5 (RCP4.5 and RCP8.5) forcing scenarios is examined using the CESM1 state-of-the-art global circulation model from 2021 to 2050.

Interactions between typhoons Parma and Melor (2009) in North West Pacific Ocean
This paper analyzes the interactions between typhoons (TYs) Parma and Melor (2009) in the North West Pacific (NWP) Ocean. The TY Parma (2009) is chosen for investigation because it has a unique track with multiple U-turns and 3 landfalls over the Luzan Island of Philippines that are extremely difficult, if not impossible, to forecast by numerical ...

Special Issue: The North-West Pacific in the 18th and 19th Centuries [PDF]
The texts in this Special Issue represent an interesting combination, covering as they do two contrasting historical studies of the North West Pacific: the sweeping ambitions of Russian imperial designs on the western coast of North America, and the closely-observed ethnographic studies of native peoples in that region by the Norwegian explorer Johan ...

Interannual Variability of Northern Hemisphere Storm Tracks in Coarse-Gridded Datasets
Extratropical cyclones exert a large socioeconomic impact. It is therefore important to assess their interannual variability. We generate cyclone tracks from the National Center for Environmental Prediction’s Reanalysis I and the European Centre for ...

Assessment of ozone photochemistry in the western North Pacific as inferred from PEM-West A observations during the fall 1991 [PDF]
This study examines the influence of photochemical processes on ozone distributions in the western North Pacific. The analysis is based on data generated during NASA's western Pacific Exploratory Mission (PEM-West A) during the fall of 1991. Ozone trends

Geoid anomalies and fracture zones in the Pacific Ocean [PDF]
The high degree and order geoid field in the Pacific is a superposition of fracture zone anomalies and hot-spot swell anomalies. A two-dimensional spectral analysis of this field reveals a very strong north-south wavenumber contribution with a dominant ...
