P1.3 Applications of Lightning Observations to Tropical Cyclone Intensity Forecasting
The next generation geostationary satellite system starting with GOES-R will include a geostationary lightning mapper (GLM). The GLM will provide nearly continuous times and locations of total lightning with an accuracy of about 10 km over most of the field of view of GOES-east and –west. This coverage will include nearly all of the regions where tropical cyclones occur in the Atlantic and nort...
متن کاملMicrowave and Millimeter-Wave Radiometric and Radiosonde Observations in an Arctic Environment
In a recent paper by Mattioli et al., a significant difference was observed between upper-tropospheric and lower-stratospheric water vapor profiles as observed by two radiosonde systems operating in the Arctic. The first was the Vaisala RS90 system as operated by the U.S. Department of Energy’s Atmospheric Radiation Measurement Program; the second was the operational radiosondes launched by the...
متن کاملRepresentativeness errors for radiosonde observations
Data from the United Kingdom operational upper air network, as well as from special radiosonde trials, have been analysed to provide statistics of spatial and temporal atmospheric variations. These statistics are applied to a study of the network performance and of representativeness errors associated with the use of the data in synoptic analysis. The results also have application to comparison...
متن کاملAircraft Microphysical and Surface-Based Radar Observations of Summertime Arctic Clouds
Updated analyses of in situ microphysical properties of three Arctic cloud systems sampled by aircraft in July 1998 during the Surface Heat Budget of the Arctic Ocean (SHEBA)/First International Satellite Cloud Climatology Project (ISCCP) Regional Experiment–Arctic Clouds Experiment (FIRE–ACE) are examined in detail and compared with surface-based millimeter Doppler radar. A fourth case is give...
متن کاملThe impact of an intense summer cyclone on 2012 Arctic sea ice retreat
[1] This model study examines the impact of an intense early August cyclone on the 2012 record low Arctic sea ice extent. The cyclone passed when Arctic sea ice was thin and the simulated Arctic ice volume had already declined ~40% from the 2007–2011 mean. The thin sea ice pack and the presence of ocean heat in the near surface temperature maximum layer created conditions that made the ice part...
