Differences in Satellite‐Based Latent Heating Profiles Between the 2015/2016 Disruption and Westerly Phase of the Quasi‐Biennial Oscillation

Journal of Geophysical Research: Atmospheres, Volume 127, Issue 19, 16 October 2022., 2022
Abstract Latent heating (LH) profiles from the Tropical Rainfall Measuring Mission (TRMM) and the Global Precipitation Measurement mission (GPM) were employed to examine the LH distribution during the quasi‐biennial oscillation (QBO) disruption in the 2015/2016 Northern Hemispheric (NH) winter.

Environmental Variability during TOGA COARE

Journal of the Atmospheric Sciences, 2000
Abstract This study provides quantitative estimates of the thermodynamic and kinematic structures of the troposphere during various convective regimes observed during the Tropical Ocean Global Atmosphere Coupled Ocean–Atmosphere Response Experiment. The data source is the upper air soundings from six stations in the intensive flux array.

Desenvolvimento de uma parametrização do efeito de rajadas associadas a sistemas convectivos nos fluxos de calor na superfície utilizando Modelagem de Ensemble de Nuvens

Revista Brasileira de Meteorologia, 2013
Sistemas convectivos precipitantes produzem rajadas a partir de suas correntes descendentes, quando estas atingem a superfície. Tais rajadas têm a capacidade de amplificar os fluxos superficiais de calor sensível e latente, com possíveis consequências ...

Buoyancy of Convective Clouds in TOGA COARE

Journal of the Atmospheric Sciences, 1998
Abstract The buoyancy of convective clouds in TOGA COARE was calculated from the NCAR Electra in situ measurements of temperature, humidity, liquid water content, and two-dimensional images of raindrops. Most of the measurements were made at 700 mb (10°C) although some were made at 850 (18°C) and 600 mb (2°C).
