On the formation of vertical vortices in the atmosphere.
(1999)
This dissertation reports on two semi-independent studies of rotating atmospheric convection. The first is an analytical investigation of the linear stability and structure of convection in a mean circular shear. The study ...
Colorful Language: Investigating the Interpretation of the Storm Prediction Center's Convective Outlook by Broadcast Meteorologists and the US Public
(2020-07-30)
Though severe weather forecast products, such as the Storm Prediction Center (SPC) convective outlook, have shown to be significantly more accurate than climatology at day-to-week time scales, tornadoes and severe thunderstorms ...
The assessment of climatological impacts on agricultural production and residential energy demand /
(The University of Oklahoma., 1985)
Two user groups of major economic importance were selected for study; agriculture and gas utilities. The broad agricultural sector is further defined as U.S.A. corn production. The general category of utilities is narrowed ...
Numerical variational objective analysis of the planetary boundary layer in conjunction with squall line formation /
(The University of Oklahoma., 1970)
Modeling of the aerosol-cloud interactions in marine stratocumulus.
(1997)
In order to study the cloud processing of aerosols, a two-parameter drop spectrum that depends on both the drop mass and the solute mass has been introduced into the CIMMS LES model. The aerosol processing due to condensation, ...
Development of a diagnostic surface energy budget model using Oklahoma Mesonet and ARM data.
(1998)
The model was then used to calculate H at 44 sites in Oklahoma during the daytime hours of July 1997. In general, H was much larger across western Oklahoma throughout the month. On 12 July, a strong meridional gradient in ...
Coupling the Advanced Regional Prediction System and the Discrete Event Specification Fire Spread Model to Predict Wildfire Behavior
(2014-05-09)
The cost of wildfire suppression in the United States has risen dramatically over the last 20 years. As the interface between wildland and urban areas expands, increased emphasis is being placed on rapid, efficient deployment ...
Interstate Data Moving and the Last Block Problem: Lessons Learned in CAPS Spring Experiment 2014
(2014-09-24)
Talk Abstract
In Spring of 2014, for the first time, CAPS endeavored to send complete high resolution 4D numerical weather prediction forecast files from the National Institute for Computational Sciences (NICS) in Oak ...
