Initializing a mesoscale boundary layer model with radiosonde observations
(Springer, 2017-08)
A mesoscale boundary-layer model is used to simulate low-level regional wind fields over the La Plata River of South America, a region characterized by a strong daily cycle of land–river surface-temperature contrast and ...
On the application of hierarchical cluster analysis for synthesizing low-level wind fields obtained with a mesoscale boundary layer model
(Wiley, 2013-07)
Hierarchical clustering is applied to a boundary layer model output that describes the low-level wind field over the La Plata River region of South America. The model output consists of 180 17-dimensional vectors per season ...
Atmospheric forcing of the eastern tropical Pacific: A review
(2006-06-06)
The increase in marine, land surface, atmospheric and satellite data during recent decades has led to an improved understanding of the air–sea interaction processes in the eastern tropical Pacific. This is also thanks to ...
Atmospheric forcing of the eastern tropical Pacific: A review
(2006-06-06)
The increase in marine, land surface, atmospheric and satellite data during recent decades has led to an improved understanding of the air–sea interaction processes in the eastern tropical Pacific. This is also thanks to ...
Gone with the wind: Is signal timing in a neotropical katydid an adaptive response to variation in wind-induced vibratory noise?
(Springer, 2020)
Wind, a major source of environmental noise, forces invertebrates that communicate with plant-borne vibrations to adjust their signaling when communicating in windy conditions. However, the strategies that animals use to ...
The coastal winds off western subtropical South America in future climate scenarios
(2008)
The west coast of subtropical South America is characterized by a semi-arid climate and very persistent
southerly winds that often exhibit a low-level jet structure. The nearly alongshore flow forces coastal and offshore ...
Theoretical effects of geomagnetic activity on low-latitude ionospheric electric fields
(American Geophysical Union, 2005-05-27)
The influence of geomagnetic activity on middle‐ and low‐latitude thermospheric winds and ionospheric electric fields is investigated using model results from the National Center for Atmospheric Research Thermosphere‐Ion ...
The first case study of a thunderstorm in South Africa based on dual- Doppler radar observations
(1992-12-01)
On 27 March 1991, an isolated thunderstorm passed between the two CSIR Doppler radars, spaced about 45km apart. Both radars simultaneously recorded Doppler data of the storm, and a detailed case study during an 11-min ...
