Existing cross-parameterization approaches suffer from several problems: low robustness, slow speed, hard to balance compatible mesh’s detail and complexity. These difficulties reduce its usefulness. In this paper, we propose a new scheme to solve these problems. Utilizing the inherent relationship between patch-generation and cross-parameterization, we compute compatible triangle patch layouts...

Flight-level data and global positioning system dropwindsonde observations collected from more than 187 flights into 19 tropical cyclones were used to examine why different planetary boundary layer parameterization schemes applied hurricane models produce diverse forecasts of structure intensity change. Two popular, yet diverse, physics schemes, namely, the GFS K-Profile a 1.5-order turbulence ...

Background: In vitro maturation is a good method to decrease cancer risk of superovulation by gonadotropin hormones. A paracrine effect of oocyte secretions on oocyte developmental competence is under investigation. Apart from oocyte maturation, ovulation in vivo requires a precise control of extracellular matrix modification. Cumulus cells secrete hyaluronan to form a muco-elastic extracellula...

This paper discusses aircraft observations and large-eddy simulation (LES) modeling of 15 May 2008, North Sea boundary-layer clouds from the EUCAARIIMPACT field campaign. These clouds are advected from the northeast by the prevailing lower-tropospheric winds and featured stratocumulus-over-cumulus cloud formations. An almost-solid stratocumulus deck in the upper part of the relatively deep, wea...

The major evolution of the National Center for Atmospheric Research Community Atmosphere Model (CAM) is used to diagnose climate feedbacks, understand how climate feedbacks change with different physical parameterizations, and identify the processes and regions that determine climate sensitivity. In the evolution of CAM from version 4 to version 5, the water vapor, temperature, surface albedo, ...
