Abstract Most inland water bodies are not resolved by general circulation models, requiring that lake surface temperatures be estimated. Given the large spatial and temporal variability of North American Great Lakes, such estimations can introduce errors when used as lower boundary conditions for dynamical downscaling. Lake (LSTs) influence moisture heat fluxes, thus impacting precipitation wit...

Strong earthquakes are a major cause of natural disasters and may also be related to heavy rainfall events. Both phenomena have received considerable attention in seismology meteorology, two relatively independent disciplines, but we do not yet know whether there is connection between them. We investigated the characteristics daily over seismic areas China. Our statistical analyses showed that ...

This study shows that cloud seeding should be planned by considering the dam reservoir characteristics as well basin characteristics. First, collection efficiency of increased rainfall is compared for three basins (Boryeong Dam, Yongdam and Namgang Dam basins) located in western part Korean Peninsula. Second, additional runoff volumes those from are with each other. Finally, change water supply...

High-resolution (6 km × 6 km) reanalyses (HRR) have been generated using the Advanced Research Weather and Forecasting model (WRF-ARW) three-dimensional variational-Ensemble Kalman Filter (3DEnKF). The six-hourly cyclic downscaling methodology has used to develop HRR for simulating life cycle of three rapidly intensified long-life tropical cyclones (TCs) viz. Fani, Ockhi, Luban over North India...

Abstract The High-Resolution Rapid Refresh Ensemble (HRRRE) is a 36-member ensemble analysis system with 9 forecast members that utilizes the Advanced Research version of Weather and Forecasting (ARW-WRF) dynamic core physics suite from operational Refresh/High-Resolution deterministic modeling system. A goal HRRRE development sufficient spread among members, comparable in magnitude to random e...

The prediction of extremely severe cyclonic storms has been a long-standing and challenging issue due to their short life period large variation in intensities over time. In this study, we predict the track, intensity, structure an storm (ESCS) named ‘Fani,’ which developed Bay Bengal region from 27 April 4 May 2019, using Advanced Research version Weather Forecasting (WRF-ARW) model. Two numer...
