Improving High-Resolution Tropical Cyclone Prediction using a Cycled, GSI-Based Hybrid Ensemble-Variational Data Assimilation System for HWRF with Vortex Scale Observations
(2019-12-13)A Gridpoint Statistical Interpolation analysis system (GSI)-based, continuously cycled, dual-resolution hybrid ensemble-variational (EnVar) data assimilation (DA) system is developed for the Hurricane Weather Research and ... -
PLEISTOCENE CORAL REEF DESTRUCTION IN THE FLORIDA KEYS: PALEOTEMPESTITE EVIDENCE FROM A HIGH RESOLUTION LIDAR XRF ANALYSIS OF WINDLEY KEY QUARRY, FL
(2016-05-14)Not all unconformities are alike, and for carbonates, their discrimination can be difficult. In this regard, one particular discontinuity surface, among many, which is exposed as a laterally persistent surface in the ... -
