Numerical Simulation of a Midlatitude Squall Line in Two Dimensions
Robert G. Fovell,Yoshi Ogura +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, a two-dimensional, anelastic cloud model was used in attempts to numerically replicate the observed structure of a midlatitude squall line, and initial conditions were adapted from observations of the 22 May 1976 Oklahoma line.
Journal ArticleDOI
The Structure of a Midlatitude Squall Line: A Case Study
Yoshi Ogura,Ming-Tao Liou +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, a well-organized squall line with a width of more than 100 km passed through the mesonetwork of the National Severe Storms Laboratory in central Oklahoma.
Journal ArticleDOI
Effect of vertical wind shear on numerically simulated multicell storm structure
Robert G. Fovell,Yoshi Ogura +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, a strictly two-dimensional cloud model was used to gauge the effect of vertical wind shear on the mature phase behavior of model-simulated multicellular storms, extending the previous work of the authors.
Journal ArticleDOI
Numerical study of orographic-convective precipitation over the eastern Arabian Sea and the Ghat Mountains during the summer monsoon
Yoshi Ogura,Masanori Yoshizaki +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, a two-dimensional compressible moist cloud model is applied to study the physics underlying orographic-convective precipitation over this area, and the initial fields of thermodynamic variables are specified using observed data gathered upstream of the offshore precipitating systems over the Arabian Sea.
Journal ArticleDOI
Modeling the Evolution of the Convective Planetary Boundary Layer
Wen-Yih Sun,Yoshi Ogura +1 more
TL;DR: The level 3 turbulence closure model proposed by Mellor and Yamada as mentioned in this paper is modified to incorporate the formulations for the turbulence third-order moments and pressure terms proposed by Zeman and Lumley (1976) and to introduce turbulence length scales which depend upon the stratification of the atmosphere.
