Late Triassic Tetrapod Tracks of Western North America
Significant tetrapod footprint assemblages from the Late Triassic of western North America include the following ichnotaxa: Gwyneddichnium majore Bock, 1952, Rhynchosauroides ispp. Maidwell, 1911, Brachychirotherium parvum (Hitchcock, 1889) Brachychirotherium thuringiacum Rühle von Lilienstern, 1938, Apatopus lineatus Baird, 1957, Grallator cursorius Hitchcock, 1858, Anchisauripus sillimani Hit...
متن کاملA synoptic-climatology approach to increase the skill of numerical weather predictions over Iran
Simplifications used in regional climate models decrease the accuracy of the regional climate models. To overcome this deficiency, usually a statistical technique of MOS is used to improve the skill of gridded outputs of the Numerical Weather Prediction (NWP) models. In this paper, an experimental synoptic-climatology based method has been used to calibrate, and decrease amount of errors in GFS...
متن کاملClimatology of Cyclones, Anticyclones and Storm Tracks: Revision of Concepts
This paper has the finality of describe climatology of extratropical cyclones, anticyclones and storm tracks for the NH and SH. There is a long history of studies on the characteristics of synoptic systems, beginning with classical work on mid-latitude cyclones. For the SH, analyses of pressure data provide extensive statistics of the climatology of synoptic systems. Interestingly, the anticycl...
متن کاملInfluences of a shift in North Pacific storm tracks on western North American precipitation under global warming
Recent global climate model simulations for the IPCC Fourth Assessment report show a realistic North Pacific storm track and Aleutian Low for the present-day climate conditions. Under climate change, the storm track and Aleutian Low move northward and intensify. These changes shift precipitation northward along the Pacific coast of North America. In particular, precipitation is intensified over...
متن کاملReconstructed storm tracks reveal three centuries of changing moisture delivery to North America
Moisture delivery to western North America is closely linked to variability in the westerly storm tracks of midlatitude cyclones, which are, in turn, modified by larger-scale features such as the El Niño-Southern Oscillation system. Instrumental and modeling data suggest that extratropical storm tracks may be intensifying and shifting poleward due to anthropogenic climate change, but it is diff...
