Eugenia Kalnay,Masao Kanamitsu,Robert Kistler,William D. Collins,D.G. Deaven,L. S. Gandin,M. Iredell,Suranjana Saha,Glenn H. White,John S. Woollen,Yuejian Zhu,Muthuvel Chelliah,Wesley Ebisuzaki,Wayne Higgins,John E. Janowiak,Kingtse C. Mo,Chester F. Ropelewski,Julian X. L. Wang,Ants Leetmaa,Richard W. Reynolds,Roy L. Jenne,Dennis Joseph +21 more
TL;DR: The NCEP/NCAR 40-yr reanalysis uses a frozen state-of-the-art global data assimilation system and a database as complete as possible, except that the horizontal resolution is T62 (about 210 km) as discussed by the authors.
Journal ArticleDOI
Continental-scale water and energy flux analysis and validation for the North American Land Data Assimilation System project phase 2 (NLDAS-2): 1. Intercomparison and application of model products
Youlong Xia,Kenneth E. Mitchell,Michael Ek,Justin Sheffield,Brian Cosgrove,Eric F. Wood,Lifeng Luo,Charles Alonge,Helin Wei,Jesse Meng,Ben Livneh,Dennis P. Lettenmaier,Victor Koren,Qingyun Duan,Kingtse C. Mo,Yun Fan,David Mocko +16 more
TL;DR: The second phase of the NLDAS-2 research partnership is presented in this article, where four land surface models (Noah, Variable Infiltration Capacity, Sacramento Soil Moisture Accounting, and Mosaic) are executed over the conterminous U.S. (CONUS) in real-time and retrospective modes.
Journal ArticleDOI
Alternating Wet and Dry Conditions over South America during Summer
TL;DR: In this article, the authors used time series of outgoing longwave radiation (OLR) fields and various gridded reanalysis products to identify and describe periods with abundant and deficient rainfall over South America during summer.
Journal ArticleDOI
Influence of the Great Plains Low-Level Jet on Summertime Precipitation and Moisture Transport over the Central United States
TL;DR: In this article, the influence of the Great Plains low-level jet (LLJ) on summertime precipitation and moisture transport over the central United States is examined in observations and in assimilated datasets recently produced by the NCEP/NCAR and the NASA/DAO.
Journal ArticleDOI
Causes and Predictability of the 2012 Great Plains Drought
Martin P. Hoerling,Jon Eischeid,Arun Kumar,Ruby Leung,Annarita Mariotti,Kingtse C. Mo,Siegfried D. Schubert,Richard Seager +7 more
TL;DR: For example, this article found that ocean surface temperatures together with changes in greenhouse gases did not induce a substantial reduction in summertime precipitation over the central Great Plains during 2012, but such an extreme drought event was still a rare occurrence within the spread of 2012 climate model simulations.
