Analysis of the 13–14 July Gulf Surge Event during the 2004 North American Monsoon Experiment
Gulf surges are disturbances that move northward along the Gulf of California (GOC), frequently advecting cool, moist air from the GOC or eastern tropical Pacific Ocean into the deserts of the southwest United States and northwest Mexico during the North American Monsoon (NAM). Little attention has been given to the dynamics of these disturbances because of the lack of reliable high-resolution ...
متن کاملPolarimetric Radar Observations of Convection in Northwestern Mexico during the North American Monsoon Experiment
The spatial and temporal variability of convection during the North American Monsoon Experiment (NAME) was examined via analysis of three-dimensional polarimetric radar data. Terrain bands were defined as the Gulf of California (over water) and elevations of 0–500 m above mean sea level (MSL; coastal plain), 500–1500 m MSL, and .1500 m MSL. Convective rainfall over the Gulf typically featured t...
متن کاملThe effect of the MJO on the North American Monsoon
The effect of the Madden–Julian oscillation (MJO) in the eastern Pacific on the North American monsoon is documented using NCEP–NCAR reanalysis and daily mean precipitation data from 1958 to 2003. It is found that positive zonal wind anomalies in the eastern tropical Pacific lead to above-normal precipitation in northwest Mexico and Arizona from several days to over a week later. This connectio...
متن کاملGPS observations of precipitable water and implications for the predictability of precipitation during the North American Monsoon
I. Introduction: The semi-arid to arid North American Southwest has experienced, in recent decades, tremendous population growth despite limited water supplies. Water availability is highly susceptible to climate variability and change and is therefore of great concern. Climate models generally predict the region will experience warmer and drier winters in the future. During summer, incursions ...
متن کاملDynamics of a Simulated North American Monsoon Gulf Surge Event
Gulf surges are transient disturbances that propagate along the Gulf of California (GoC) from south to north, transporting cool moist air toward the deserts of northwest Mexico and the southwest United States during the North Americanmonsoon. They have been shown to modulate precipitation and have been linked to severe weather and flooding in northern Mexico and the southwest United States. The...
