ATMOSPHERIC VARIATIONS IN COLUMN INTEGRATED CO2 ON SYNOPTIC AND SEASONAL TIME SCALE OVER THE U.S.
(2018)
Past studies have demonstrated that synoptic events play an important role in the spatial and temporal variations of carbon dioxide (CO2). In this study, in order to investigate whether cold fronts have impact on synoptic ...
Rapid-scan, polarimetric, mobile, Doppler-radar observations of the formation, evolution, and structure of the El Reno tornado of 31 May 2013
(2016-10)
On 31 May 2013, the mobile, Rapid-scan, X-band, Polarimetric (RaXPol) radar collected a high spatial and temporal resolution dataset documenting the genesis, intensification, and dissipation of a tornado that caused EF-3 ...
Large Scale and Local Influences on the Occurrence and Maintenance of Liquid Bearing Clouds over the Greenland Ice Sheet
(2016)
Arctic liquid bearing clouds (LBCs) have a large impact on the surface radiation and cryospheric mass budgets. Their effect on the surface radiation budget is a combination of two competing processes. First, they can ...
Understanding the Features and Mechanisms of the Great Plains Low-Level Jet in CMIP5 Models
(2016-12)
The Great Plains low-level jet (GPLLJ) is an important driver of precipitation and severe weather outbreaks over the U.S. Great Plains during the spring and summer. Therefore, it is extremely important that features of the ...
Boundary Layer Profiling Using Rotary-Wing Unmanned Aircraft Systems: Filling the Atmospheric Data Gap
(2018-08)
The planetary boundary layer (PBL) is comprised of energy exchanges with the Earth’s surface, and as such plays a large factor in the evolution of weather con- ditions. However, traditional methods of observing the atmosphere, ...
