Observed Characteristics of the MJO Relative to Maximum Rainfall
This study examines various dynamical and thermodynamical processes that characterize the Madden– Julian oscillation (MJO). Episodes of deep convection related to the MJO based on rainfall data from the Tropical Rainfall Measuring Mission (TRMM) satellite and the Global Precipitation Climatology Project (GPCP) are identified. Although broad convective envelopes are located utilizing spectrally ...

متن کاملTesting a Cumulus Parameterization With a Cumulus Ensemble Model in Weak Temperature Gradient Mode
This paper prototypes a method for calibrating a cumulus parameterization against a cumulus ensemble model. The key to this technique is to run the cumulus model and the parameterization in identical test cells which provide forcing typical of that seen over tropical oceans. In particular, the mean temperature pro le is relaxed to a reference pro le which is assumed to be characteristic of the ...
متن کاملAdaptive simulations of trade cumulus convection
Many problems in meteorology are being studied with the use of mesh reenement to focus computational eeort on particular regions within the domain. This paper presents a form of adaptive mesh reenement based on hierarchical reenement in space and time for studying atmospheric con-vection and other geophysical ows where the phenomena of interest occupy a small but spatially distributed fraction ...
متن کاملRACORO continental boundary layer cloud investigations: 3. Separation of parameterization biases single-column model CAM5 simulations of shallow cumulus
Climatically important low-level clouds are commonly misrepresented in climate models. The FAst-physics System TEstbed and Research (FASTER) Project has constructed case studies from the Atmospheric Radiation Measurement Climate Research Facility’s Southern Great Plain site during the RACORO aircraft campaign to facilitate research on model representation of boundary-layer clouds. This paper fo...
