In this study, the synoptic conditions for modes of mesoscale convective systems (MCSs) in South Korea are generalized based on composite analysis. The preferred precipitation region, synoptic patterns, moisture transport, sea surface temperature and thermodynamic and dynamic instabilities are characterized according to four modes: convective cells (CC)

Modern spectral analysis in HF radar remote sensing. [PDF]
High-Frequency (HF) radar systems are currently used to collect wave data. By applying spectral analysis methods, such as the Fast Fourier Transform (FFT) method, to the radar backscatter from the ocean surface, the so-called Doppler spectrum is ...

Applying Parametric Model Correction on Sea State Bias to Estimate Sea Surface Height over the Savu Sea [PDF]
Range, the distance between the satellite and the ocean surface covered by the radar trace, is measured by tracking the received waveform. The range measurement errors may be caused by sea state bias (SSB) which is the main source of measurement errors ...

Exploiting Aeolus winds in a regional numerical weather prediction model
Aeolus measured winds have proven to be beneficial for global models. However, demonstrating positive impact for limited‐area models has been a challenge so far. For the first time, we have demonstrated a statistically significant positive impact of Aeolus winds in a limited‐area model by using the 4DVar data assimilation technique and the most recent ...

Signal Processing Methods to Improve Ocean Surface Wave Estimation from a High Frequency Surface Wave Radar [PDF]
High frequency surface wave radars are operated as a remote sensor to measure ocean surface parameters to ranges exceeding 200-300 km from the coastline.

The climatological‐error covariance matrix used in three‐dimensional variational data assimilation (3DVar) provides smooth and isotropic increments spread to long distances. In contrast, three‐dimensional ensemble variational data assimilation (3DEnVar) with a purely ensemble‐error covariance matrix provides inhomogeneous increments and contains the ...

This large‐eddy simulation study on pyroconvection shows that the added value from resolving the mesoscale explicitly is found in the timing of pyrocumulus formation and circulation changes. The circulation of the convective plume itself is not substantially different between the simulations. Abstract Extreme wildfire events are characterised by strong

Mapping Surface Currents in Monterey Bay with CODAR-Type HF radar [PDF]
HIGH-FREQUENCY (HF) radar measurements have been employed around Monterey Bay, CA, to measure ocean surface currents since February 1992. The first array consisted of two older-generation CODAR instruments located at sites near Monterey in the south

This article provides a first evaluation of land‐surface models at the km‐scale resolutions at which they are used in weather and Earth‐system models. At these resolutions, the lateral transfers of water that organize landscapes play an important role in predicting evaporation correctly. Riparian processes and human water management for irrigation need
