Impact of Surface Turbulent Fluxes on the Formation of Roll Vortices in a Mediterranean Windstorm

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Atmospheres, Volume 129, Issue 22, 28 November 2024.
Abstract Roll vortices can have a significant influence on the exchanges of momentum, sensible heat and moisture throughout the boundary layer. They have been shown to reinforce air‐sea interactions under strong wind conditions. This raises the question of how air‐sea exchanges can, in turn, affect the roll vortices.

Evaluation of Modeled Diurnal Warming Estimates for Application to Producing Sea Surface Temperature Analyses

open access: yesEarth and Space Science, Volume 11, Issue 9, September 2024.
Abstract Accurate knowledge of the amount of diurnal warming present in sea surface temperature (SST) observations at different times and effective depths is important for multiple applications including the production of blended SST analyses. This work explores the ability of a modified Kantha‐Clayson‐type one‐dimensional mixed layer ocean model with ...

Near‐Storm Environmental Relationships With Tropical Oceanic Convective Structure Observed During NASA CPEX and CPEX‐AW

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Atmospheres, Volume 129, Issue 12, 28 June 2024.
Abstract Deep tropical oceanic convection (TOC) is a prevailing component of the tropical atmosphere and plays a significant role in modulating global weather and climate. Despite its importance, prediction challenges remain, partly attributed to a lack of understanding of how TOC relates to its near‐storm environments.

Rain retrieval method for mesoscale convective systems [PDF]

open access: yes, 1999
The analysis of recent high-resolution aircraft observations over the ocean made by radar and passive microwave radiometer reveals significant problems in relating the brightness temperature measurements of the radiometer with the radar-derived rain ...

Vertical Moist Thermodynamic Structure and Spatial–Temporal Evolution of the MJO in AIRS Observations [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
The atmospheric moisture and temperature profiles from the Atmospheric Infrared Sounder (AIRS)/Advanced Microwave Sounding Unit on the NASA Aqua mission, in combination with the precipitation from the Tropical Rainfall Measuring Mission (TRMM), are ...

Rains and Showers in OTREC; Weak Temperature Gradient Modeling

open access: yesJournal of Advances in Modeling Earth Systems, Volume 16, Issue 3, March 2024.
Abstract Rainfall in the tropics has been shown to be produced either by isolated but intense convective systems (showers regime) or widespread but weaker systems (rains regime). We examine significant rainfall systems observed in the OTREC project (Organization of Tropical East Pacific Convection) in order to tease out the physical mechanisms ...

Mid‐level dry air intrusions over the southern Maritime Continent

open access: yesQuarterly Journal of the Royal Meteorological Society, Volume 150, Issue 759, Page 727-745, January 2024 Part B.
Many processes influence rainfall patterns observed across the Maritime Continent in southeast Asia. Dry air intrusions (a tropical–extratropical interaction) arriving in the southern Maritime Continent are due to upper level disturbances along the subtropical jet.

Large-Scale Atmospheric Circulation Features during TOGA-COARE IOP

open access: yesJournal of the Meteorological Society of Japan. Ser. II, 1995
The present paper analyzed the large-scale aspects of the atmospheric circulation features during the TOGA-COARE IOP period (November 1, 1992-February 28, 1993). Atmospheric conditions were in many ways similar to those typical of a developing warm episode over the equatorial eastern Pacific, including the frequent occurrence of the low-level westerly ...
