A Further Look at Q1 and Q2 from TOGA COARE
Meteorological Monographs, 2016 Abstract Two features of Yanai et al.’s profiles of Q1 and Q2—the commonly observed double-peak structure to Q2 and an inflection in the Q1 profile below the melting level—are explored using estimates of convective and stratiform rainfall partitioning based on Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) radar reflectivity data collected ...

Convection in TOGA COARE: Horizontal Scale, Morphology, and Rainfall Production [PDF]
Journal of the Atmospheric Sciences, 1998 Abstract The occurrence frequency and rainfall production of mesoscale convective systems (MCSs) relative to smaller groups of convective clouds over the tropical oceans is not well known. Eighty days of shipboard radar data collected during the recent Tropical Ocean Global Atmosphere Coupled Ocean–Atmosphere Response Experiment (TOGA COARE) were used ...

Surface salinity budget in oceanic simulation using data from TOGA COARE [PDF]
Journal of Geophysical Research: Oceans, 2003 A three‐dimensional regional model is used to investigate the role of different terms of the salinity budget in the western Pacific during TOGA COARE. The model is a version of the ocean general circulation model (OGCM) developed at the Laboratoire d'Océanographie Dynamique et de Climatologie (LODYC) in Paris and includes open lateral boundaries and a ...

Retrieval of Precipitation from Microwave Airborne Sensors during TOGA COARE
Journal of Applied Meteorology, 1998 Abstract The aim of this paper is to report on the retrieval of the vertically averaged liquid cloud water content and vertically averaged precipitation rates (rain and ice) from microwave airborne radiometric observations in a two-plane parallel layer atmosphere.

Pacific Warm Pool Temperature Regulation during TOGA COARE: Upper Ocean Feedback*
Journal of Climate, 1998 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).

Explicit and Parameterized Realizations of Convective Cloud Systems in TOGA COARE
Monthly Weather Review, 2001 Convection and cloud processes are examined in a hierarchy of two-dimensional numerical realizations of cloud systems observed during the 19‐26 December 1992 period of the Tropical Ocean Global Atmosphere Coupled Ocean‐Atmosphere Response Experiment.

Airborne Doppler Radar Analysis of a TOGA COARE Waterspout Storm
Monthly Weather Review, 1997 Abstract An airborne Doppler radar analysis of a waterspout parent storm is presented. An 8-min window centered around the time of the visual observation of the waterspout is presented. The waterspout was associated with a small, intense cloud that developed ahead of a squall line.
