Moist and Boundary Layer Physics
Improve the understanding of cloud and boundary layer processes within the littoral through the use of the Coupled Ocean/Atmosphere Mesoscale Prediction System (COAMPS) and relevant observations. Improve the moist and boundary layer physics schemes used in COAMPS based on knowledge gained through extensive testing and verification of high-resolution (1-20 km horizontal grid spacing) numerical s...
متن کاملEvidence linking rapid Arctic warming to mid-latitude weather patterns
The effects of rapid Arctic warming and ice loss on weather patterns in the Northern Hemisphere is a topic of active research, lively scientific debate and high societal impact. The emergence of Arctic amplification--the enhanced sensitivity of high-latitude temperature to global warming--in only the last 10-20 years presents a challenge to identifying statistically robust atmospheric responses...
متن کاملValidation of Martilli’s urban boundary layer scheme with measurements from two mid-latitude European cities
Martilli’s urban parameterization scheme is improved and implemented in a mesoscale model in order to take into account the typical effects of a real city on the air temperature near the ground and on the surface exchange fluxes. The mesoscale model is run on a single column using atmospheric data and radiation recorded above roof level as forcing. Here, the authors validate Martilli’s urban bo...
متن کاملMoist synoptic transport of CO2 along the mid‐latitude storm track
[1] Atmospheric mixing ratios of CO2 are strongly seasonal in the Arctic due to mid‐latitude transport. Here we analyze the seasonal influence of moist synoptic storms by diagnosing CO2 transport from a global model on moist isentropes (to represent parcel trajectories through stormtracks) and parsing transport into eddy and mean components. During winter when northern plants respire, warm mois...
متن کاملUnder-ice Boundary Layer
Sea ice is in almost constant motion in response to wind, ocean currents, and forces transmitted within the ice cover itself, thus there is nearly always a zone of sheared Sow between the ice and underlying, undisturbed ocean where turbulence transports momentum, heat, salt, and other contaminants vertically. The zone in which these turbulent Suxes occur, which can span from a few to hundreds o...
