Cloud system resolving model study of the roles of deep convection for photo-chemistry in the TOGA COARE/CEPEX region [PDF]
A cloud system resolving model including photo-chemistry (CSRMC) has been developed based on a prototype version of the Weather Research and Forecasting (WRF) model and is used to study influences of deep convection on chemistry in the TOGA COARE/CEPEX ...

Modelling tracer transport by a cumulus ensemble: lateral boundary conditions and large-scale ascent [PDF]
The vertical transport of tracers by a cumulus ensemble at the TOGA-COARE site is modelled during a 7 day episode using 2-D and 3-D cloud-resolving setups of the Weather Research and Forecast (WRF) model.

Pacific Warm Pool Temperature Regulation during TOGA COARE: Upper Ocean Feedback* [PDF]
The Hasselmann feedback model was applied to hindcast western Pacific warm pool sea surface temperatures (SST) with heat flux observations obtained near 2 8S, 1568E from October 1992 to February 1993 during the Tropical Ocean Global Atmosphere Coupled Ocean‐Atmosphere Response Experiment (TOGA COARE).

Regional Study on the Oceanic Cool Skin and Diurnal Warming Effects: Observing and Modeling
The cool skin and diurnal warming effects are important factors affecting the vertical temperature gradient in the upper ocean. Accurately understanding skin effects is of great significance for studying ocean–atmosphere modeling and climate change.

Momentum and buoyancy transfer in atmospheric turbulent boundary layer over wavy water surface – Part 2: Wind–wave spectra [PDF]
Drag and mass exchange coefficients are calculated within a self-consistent problem for the wave-induced air perturbations and mean velocity and density fields using a quasi-linear model based on the Reynolds equations with down-gradient turbulence ...

Observations and modelling of 1/f-noise in weather and climate [PDF]
Data with power spectra close to S(f)~1/f is denoted as 1/f or flicker noise. High resolution measurements during TOGA/COARE for temperature, humidity, and wind speed (1\,min resolution) reveal 1/f spectra while precipitation shows no power-law scaling ...

TOGA COARE shipborne radar‐rainfall products [PDF]
Rainfall products derived from radar data often consume vast amounts of storage space and are time‐consuming to analyze. Shipborne radar data collected during the Tropical Ocean Global Atmosphere (TOGA) Coupled Ocean‐Atmosphere Response Experiment (COARE) provide an extensive data set to examine rainfall characteristics in the tropical Western Pacific ...

Three-Dimensional Dynamics of Freshwater Lenses in the Ocean’s Near-Surface Layer [PDF]
Convective rains in the Intertropical Convergence Zone produce lenses of freshened water on the ocean surface. Due to significant density differences between the freshened and saltier seawater, strong pressure gradients develop, resulting in lateral ...
