Mesoscale simulations of coastal boundary-layer transitions. Part 1: low-level jets

open access: yesMeteorologische Zeitschrift
The impact of coastal low-level jets (LLJs) should be taken into account in the planning and operating phases of offshore wind farms as these elevated wind maxima introduce additional kinetic energy and vertical wind shear at operational heights of ...

Thermal conditions during heat waves of a mid-European metropolis under consideration of climate change, urban development scenarios and resilience measures for the mid‑21st century

open access: yesMeteorologische Zeitschrift, 2021
In this study we produce two urban development scenarios estimating potential urban sprawl and optimized development concerning building construction, and we simulate their influence on air temperature, surface temperatures and human thermal comfort.

Background Error in WRF Model

open access: yesWSEAS TRANSACTIONS ON ENVIRONMENT AND DEVELOPMENT, 2020
WRF model have been tuned and tested over Georgia’s territory for years. First time in Georgia theprocess of data assimilation in Numerical weather prediction is developing. This work presents how forecasterror statistics appear in the data assimilation problem through the background error covariance matrix – B, wherethe variances and correlations ...

Evaluation of the Effect of Regional Pollutants and Residual Ozone on Ozone Concentrations in the Morning in the Inland of the Kanto Region

open access: yesAsian Journal of Atmospheric Environment, 2015
Increasing ozone concentrations are observed over Japan from year to year. One cause of high ozone concentration in the Kanto region, which includes areas inland from large coastal cities such as metropolitan Tokyo, is the transportation of precursors by

Detection of Methane Emission from a Local Source Using GOSAT Target Observations

open access: yesRemote Sensing, 2020
Emissions of atmospheric methane (CH4), which greatly contributes to radiative forcing, have larger uncertainties than those for carbon dioxide (CO2). The Thermal And Near-infrared Sensor for carbon Observation Fourier-Transform Spectrometer (TANSO-FTS ...

How to play a disc brake [PDF]

open access: yes, 1999
We consider a gyroscopic system under the action of small dissipative and non-conservative positional forces, which has its origin in the models of rotating bodies of revolution being in frictional contact.

Wind Resource Evaluation With Atmospheric Stability Across Different Surface Types

open access: yesEnergy Science &Engineering, EarlyView.
Wind resource evaluation with atmospheric stability across different surface types. ABSTRACT This study investigates the influence of atmospheric stability on wind resource assessment across various surface conditions, focusing on wind shear and prevailing wind direction as key analytical parameters.

Using the Regional Ocean Modelling System (ROMS) to improve the sea surface temperature predictions of the MERCATOR Ocean System

open access: yesScientia Marina, 2012
Global models are generally capable of reproducing the observed trends in the globally averaged sea surface temperature (SST). However, the global models do not perform as well on regional scales.

WRF-Model Data Assimilation Studies of Landfalling Atmospheric Rivers and Orographic Precipitation Over Northern California [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
In this study, data assimilation methods of 3-D variational analysis (3DVAR), observation nudging, and analysis (grid) nudging were evaluated in the Weather Research and Forecasting (WRF) model for a high-impact, multi-episode landfalling atmospheric ...
