The creation and analysis of next-day random forest-based high-impact weather forecasts
(2021-05)
Flash floods, tornadoes, damaging winds, and large hail are costly and difficult to predict, even for state-of-the-art, high-resolution numerical weather prediction (NWP) systems. Current operational NWP ensembles have a ...
A HIGH RESOLUTION DISTRIBUTED HYDROLOGIC MODEL CLIMATOLOGY OVER THE CONTERMINOUS UNITED STATES FOCUSED ON FLASH FLOODING
(2016-08-12)
This study will describe the MRMS reanalysis precipitation dataset created for the time period from 2001 to 2011. This high resolution 1-km^2 5-minute dataset is ideal for simulating flash floods with a distributed hydrologic ...
A pseudo-dual-Doppler analysis of cyclic tornadogenesis.
(2000)
The goals of this study were twofold. The first was to determine a pseudo-dual-Doppler wind synthesis method in Cartesian coordinates appropriate for the analysis of the ELDORA data. Unique aspects of this part of the study ...
Input-output analysis as a tool in assessing the impacts of climatic variations on regional economies : with prototype applications to the Oklahoma economy /
(1984)
Input-output analysis techniques are developed to relate climate impacts affecting specific economic sectors to overall economic impacts in a regional economy. The types of applied problems covered include: (1) Estimates ...
Storm-scale Ensemble-based Severe Weather Guidance: Development of an Object-based Verification Framework and Applications of Machine Learning
(2020-12-18)
A goal of the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) Warn-on-Forecast (WoF) project is to provide rapidly updating probabilistic guidance to human forecasters for short-term (e.g., 0-3 h) severe weather ...
Wet Bulb Globe Temperature and Associated Heat Waves in the United States Great Plains
(2024-05-10)
Heatwaves are a leading contributor of weather-related mortality, globally contributing to thousands of deaths each year. The impacts on humans may be direct or indirect through avenues such as heat stress, strained medical ...
Driving Mechanisms of Very Rapid Sea Ice Loss Events
(2024-05-10)
Forecasting Arctic sea ice is a complex, open problem in polar science, exasperated by climate change and Arctic amplification. Climate models consistently under represent sea ice processes on subseasonal timescales which ...
