Extreme event return times in long-term memory processes near 1/f [PDF]
Nonlinear Processes in Geophysics, 2008 The distribution of extreme event return times and their correlations are analyzed in observed and simulated long-term memory (LTM) time series with 1/f power spectra.

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).

Extended EOF Analysis of Tropical Disturbances: TOGA COARE
Journal of the Atmospheric Sciences, 1997 Empirical orthogonal function (EOF) analyses are performed of time‐height series of zonal and meridional winds and of cumulonimbus heating and drying in the Tropics. The data are from a rawinsonde array in the western Pacific located between the equator and 108S during the intensive observation period of the Tropical Ocean Global Atmosphere Coupled ...

Numerical simulation of tropical cumulus congestus during TOGA COARE [PDF]
Journal of Advances in Modeling Earth Systems, 2013 Recent observational studies of tropical deep convection typically include some mention of cumulus congestus, a third mode of tropical convection, in addition to shallow trade cumulus and deep convection. This study analyzes congestus behavior in a multiday cloud‐resolving model simulation based on the Tropical Ocean‐Global Atmosphere Coupled Ocean ...

A global climatology of the diurnal variations in sea-surface temperature and implications for MSU temperature trends [PDF]
, 2007 A global climatology of diurnal variations in sea-surface temperature based on in situ drifting-buoy data has been created. The diurnal warming signal derived from these data correlates well with estimates from a version of the Stuart-Menteth (2004 ...

TOGA‐COARE Program Announcement
Eos, Transactions American Geophysical Union, 1990 The President's 1991 National Science Foundation and National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration Budgets to Congress request funds to augment the Tropical Ocean/Global Atmosphere (TOGA) Research Program. This includes about $5 million in Fiscal Year 1991, with similar amounts planned in 1992 and 1993.

Moist static energy: definition, reference constants, a conservation law, and effects on buoyancy [PDF]
, 2017 Atmospheric thermodynamic variables are commonly computed under approximations. Although exact formulas are available, they are rarely used. This paper addresses some potential issues arising when using approximate formulas by taking the moist static ...

Horizontal Structure of the Upper Ocean Velocity and Density Fields in the Western Equatorial Pacific Warm Pool: Depth Range from 20 to 250 m [PDF]
, 2000 Wavenumber spectra of velocity and density fields in the western equatorial Pacific warm pool on scales 6–120 km are estimated using the shipboard survey data collected during the TOGA Coupled Ocean–Atmosphere Response Experiment (COARE). The spectra are
