Turbulent kinetic energy of the ocean winds over the Kuroshio Extension from QuikSCAT winds (1999-2009)

Improved Real-Time Hurricane Ocean Vector Winds from QuikSCAT

The Operational Use of QuikSCAT Ocean Surface Vector Winds at the National Hurricane Center

The utility and shortcomings of near-real-time ocean surface vector wind retrievals from the NASA Quick Scatterometer (QuikSCAT) in operational forecast and analysis activities at the National Hurricane Center (NHC) are described. The use of QuikSCAT data in tropical cyclone (TC) analysis and forecasting for center location/identification, intensity (maximum sustained wind) estimation, and anal...

Regional accuracy of QuikSCAT gridded winds

The quality of gridded 00 UTC and 12 UTC QuikSCAT wind speed fields provided by the Florida State University (FSU) and NASA Jet Propulsion Laboratory (JPL) are analysed over the Bay of Bengal during May–August 2001. Additionally, an examination of these fields is performed over the Gulf of Mexico for the May–August period from 2001 to 2003. Both 00 UTC and 12 UTC time almost coincide with QuikS...

the role of russia in transmission of energy from central asia and caucuses to european union

پس ازفروپاشی شوروی،رشد منابع نفت و گاز، آسیای میانه و قفقاز را در یک بازی ژئوپلتیکی انرژی قرار داده است. با در نظر گرفتن این منابع هیدروکربنی، این منطقه به یک میدانجنگ و رقابت تجاری برای بازی های ژئوپلتیکی قدرت های بزرگ جهانی تبدیل شده است. روسیه منطقه را به عنوان حیات خلوت خود تلقی نموده و علاقمند به حفظ حضورش می باشد تا همانند گذشته گاز طبیعی را به وسیله خط لوله مرکزی دریافت و به عنوان یک واس...

Parker Winds Revisited: An Extension to Disk Winds

Parker Winds Revisited: An Extension to Disk Winds by Timothy R. Waters Dr. Daniel Proga, Examination Committe Chair Associate Professor of Physics & Astronomy University of Nevada, Las Vegas A simple 1D dynamical model of thermally driven disk winds is proposed, based on the results of recent, 2.5D axi-symmetric simulations. Our formulation of the disk wind problem is in the spirit of the orig...
