Macroscopic water vapor diffusion is not enhanced in snow [PDF]

open access: yesThe Cryosphere, 2021
Water vapor transport in dry snowpacks plays a significant role for snow metamorphism and the mass and energy balance of snowpacks. The molecular diffusion of water vapor in the interstitial pores is usually considered to be the main or only transport ...

Impact of water vapor diffusion and latent heat on the effective thermal conductivity of snow [PDF]

open access: yesThe Cryosphere, 2021
Heat transport in snowpacks is understood to occur through the two processes of heat conduction and latent heat transport carried by water vapor, which are generally treated as decoupled from one another. This paper investigates the coupling between both

Airborne lidar observations of water vapor transport [PDF]

open access: yes2012 IEEE International Geoscience and Remote Sensing Symposium, 2012
Water vapor, a minor constituent of the earth's atmosphere, plays a major role in the radiation budget and the water cycle with important implications for weather and climate. Due to the heterogeneous distribution of its sources, evaporation, and sinks, condensation and precipitation, and due to the complexity of atmospheric motion and mixing, its ...

The Characteristics of Water Vapor Transport Based on Lagrangian Method in the Zoige, Qinghai-Xizang Plateau

open access: yesGaoyuan qixiang, 2022
The drought index has always been a practical standard for assessing a specific region's dry and wet state.In order to better understand the spatial distribution pattern of water vapor transport in the Zoige region of the Qinghai-Xizang Plateau under ...

A review on the interannual and interdecadal variations of water vapor transport over China during past decades

open access: yesShui kexue jinzhan, 2020
The water vapor transport in the atmosphere is important for the global water cycle, climate system, and ecological environment. The water vapor transport over China is a critical influential factor for the spatial pattern of drought and flood in China ...

Impacts of the Indian Summer Monsoon on the Southern Boundary Water Vapor Transport and Precipitation over the Tibetan Plateau

open access: yesAtmosphere, 2022
Water vapor transport plays a significant role in maintaining the water cycle over the Tibetan Plateau (TP). This study investigates the characteristics of water vapor transport across the TP southern boundaries and its impacts on TP precipitation during

Analysis of water vapor transport characteristics of the three persistent rainstorm processes in northeastern Sichuan basin

open access: yes暴雨灾害, 2020
In this paper, the Eulerian method is used to analyze the water vapor transport and its anomalous characteristics in three persistent rainstorms in the northeastern part of the basin in summer.

Mountain waves modulate the water vapor distribution in the UTLS [PDF]

open access: yesAtmospheric Chemistry and Physics, 2017
The water vapor distribution in the upper troposphere–lower stratosphere (UTLS) region has a strong impact on the atmospheric radiation budget. Transport and mixing processes on different scales mainly determine the water vapor concentration in the ...

Lidar Observations Versus Forecast of Water Vapor Transport [PDF]

open access: yesEPJ Web of Conferences, 2020
Water vapor advection is an important diagnostic parameter for initiation and sustenance of convective systems. This variable has traditionally been explored with balloon soundings or models, but lidar provides a unique opportunity to continuously resolve spatial and temporal evolution of water vapor transport with relatively high resolution.
