An explicit cloud physics parameterization for operational numerical weather prediction
TL;DR: The Agreement between the new algorithm and the research algorithm is much better than the agreement between the observations and the results from either algorithm, which suggests that the weather forecasting model runs much faster using the new package instead of theResearch algorithm.
Journal ArticleDOI
Relationships of Several Stability Indices to Convective Weather Events in Northeast Colorado
TL;DR: In this article, seven familiar stability indices were computed from sounding data for each of 83 days of a convection forecasting experiment conducted during the summer of 1985 in northeast Colorado and compared against this dataset to examine their performance as predictors of severe weather (large hail, tornadoes, high wind) and significant weather (nonsevere but important from an economic or public safety standpoint).
Journal ArticleDOI
Toward the Improvement of Aircraft-Icing Forecasts for the Continental United States
TL;DR: In this paper, an automated procedure is developed for detecting and forecasting atmospheric conditions conductive to aircraft icing over the continental United States using gridded output from the Nested-Grid Model.
Journal ArticleDOI
Scaling the microphysics equations and analyzing the variability of hydrometeor production rates in a controlled parameter space
TL;DR: In this article, a set of microphysics equations is scaled based on the convective length and velocity scales, and the variabilities of the parameterized microphysical processes are also studied using the approach of a controlled parameter space.
The use of three-dimensional analyses of cloud attributes for diabatic initialization of mesoscale models
Paul Schultz,Steve Albers +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors proposed a solution to the problem of 1 to 3h spin-up of cloud systems caused by the use of traditional dry initialization by using diabatic initialization of cloud-resolving forecast models such as MM5, RAMS, ARPS and WRF.
