Contribution of mixing to the upward transport across the TTL [PDF]

, 2006
During the second part of the TROCCINOX campaign that took place in Brazil in early 2005, chemical species were measured on-board of the high altitude research aircraft Geophysica (ozone, water vapor, NO, NOy, CH4 and CO) in the altitude range up to 20 ...

Vertical Resolution Impacts Explicit Simulation of Deep Convection

Journal of Advances in Modeling Earth Systems, 2023
The aggregation of tropical convection greatly influences the mean‐state of the atmosphere, altering humidity distributions, total atmospheric radiative cooling, and cloud amounts.

Planning, implementation, and first results of the Tropical Composition, Cloud and Climate Coupling Experiment (TC4) [PDF]

, 2010
The Tropical Composition, Cloud and Climate Coupling Experiment (TC4), was based in Costa Rica and Panama during July and August 2007. The NASA ER-2, DC-8, and WB-57F aircraft flew 26 science flights during TC4.

Impact of tropical convective conditions on solar irradiance forecasting based on cloud motion vectors

Environmental Research Letters, 2022
Intra-day forecasts of global horizontal solar irradiance (GHI) are widely produced by displacing existing clouds on a geo-stationary satellite image to their future locations with cloud motion vectors (CMVs) derived from preceding images.

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

, 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 ...

Convectively Generated Gravity Waves in High Resolution Models of Tropical Dynamics

Journal of Advances in Modeling Earth Systems, 2018
We investigate numerical models that display the transition of global climate modeling from coarse grids, at which convection and gravity waves are still parameterized, toward finer resolutions, where both are treated explicitly.

Propagation mechanisms for the Madden-Julian Oscillation [PDF]

, 2000
The Madden-Julian Oscillation (MJO) is examined using 20 years of outgoing longwave radiation and NCEP-NCAR reanalysis data. Two mechanisms for the eastward propagation and regeneration of the convective anomalies are suggested.

Multiple Equilibria in a Single-Column Model of the Tropical Atmosphere

, 2007
A single-column model run under the weak temperature gradient approximation, a parameterization of large-scale dynamics appropriate for the tropical atmosphere, is shown to have multiple stable equilibria.
