Convectively Forced Diurnal Gravity Waves in the Maritime Continent

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors argue that long-lived, zonally propagating diurnal rainfall disturbances are a highly pronounced and common feature in the Maritime Continent (MC), and they argue that these disturbances can be...

Formation of Nocturnal Offshore Rainfall near the West Coast of Sumatra: Land Breeze or Gravity Wave?

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors investigated the formation of the seaward precipitation migration off western Sumatra and its intraseasonal and seasonal characteristics using BMKG C-band radar observations from Padang and ERA5 reanalysis.

Physical Mechanisms Controlling the Offshore Propagation of Convection in the Tropics: 2. Influence of Topography

TL;DR: In this paper, a set of idealized convection-permitting simulations is performed to investigate the influence of topography on the physical mechanisms responsible for the nocturnal offshore propagation of convection around tropical islands.

A Simple Parameterization of Land Surface Processes for Meteorological Models

TL;DR: In this article, a parameterization of land surface processes to be included in mesoscale and large-scale meteorological models is presented, where the number of parameters has been reduced as much as possible, while attempting to preserve the representation of the physics which controls the energy and water budgets.

The Diurnal Cycle in the Tropics

TL;DR: In this article, a global archive of high-resolution (3-hourly, 0.58 latitude-longitude grid) window (11-12 mm) brightness temperature (Tb) data from multiple satellites is developed by the European Union Cloud Archive User Service (CLAUS) project.

The Meso-NH Atmospheric Simulation System. Part I: adiabatic formulation and control simulations

TL;DR: The Meso-NH Atmospheric Simulation Engine as mentioned in this paper is a tool for small and meso-scale atmospheric processes, which is based on the Lipps and Hemler form of the anelastic system.

A turbulence scheme allowing for mesoscale and large‐eddy simulations

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors describe the turbulence scheme implemented in the Meso-NH community research model, and report on some validation studies, and compare the results of three idealized boundary-layer simulations allowing detailed comparisons with other large-eddy simulation (LES) models.

The Diurnal Cycle of Rainfall and Convective Intensity according to Three Years of TRMM Measurements

TL;DR: The authors presented a comprehensive analysis of the diurnal cycle of the observed precipitation features' rainfall amount, precipitation feature frequency, rainfall intensity, convective-stratiform rainfall portioning, and remotely sensed convective intensity, sampled Tropicswide from space.
