Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The atmospheric water balance concept is applied to the air over an area of 30,000 kmp2s in the Northeastern U.S.A. The months of May to October 1967 are studied using monthly mean radiosonde data and calculating water vapour flux from both reported and geostrophic winds. Results indicate that, while neither method gives consistently reasonable values of water vapour flux divergence, the use of reported winds is superior for this purpose. Suggestions are made for improving the definition of the moisture and wind fields and for refining the calculation procedure.

This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 521 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: R.E. Newell President, International Commission on Climate International Association of Meteorology and Atmospheric Physics Water is the active ingredient in the global climatic system, its physical properties ensuring that it plays a major role. Its high thermal capacity provides a mechanism for moderating mid latitude winter temperatures; solar energy is absorbed by the surface layers of the middle latitude oceans in summer and is released to the atmosphere in winter as the ocean cools. The variation of saturation vapour pressure with temperature is the factor which causes oceanic surface temperatures at low latitudes to be limited by evaporation to values near 29°C, thereby limiting tropical marine air temperatures to about the same value. The substantial amount of energy involved in phase changes - the latent heat - governs the passage of solar energy to the atmo sphere; visible solar radiation is absorbed at the Earth's surface, energy is supplied to evaporate water and the latent heat is released to the atmosphere when and where condensation occurs, which is often a considerable distance from the source of the moisture. The infrared radiative characteristics of water vapour, namely the broad vibration-rotation bands typical of a triatomic molecule, permit it to act as the principal agent of energy loss from the atmosphere, throu?,h infrared radiation to space.

Download or read book Atmospheric Rivers written by F. Martin Ralph and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2020-07-10 with total page 284 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is the standard reference based on roughly 20 years of research on atmospheric rivers, emphasizing progress made on key research and applications questions and remaining knowledge gaps. The book presents the history of atmospheric-rivers research, the current state of scientific knowledge, tools, and policy-relevant (science-informed) problems that lend themselves to real-world application of the research—and how the topic fits into larger national and global contexts. This book is written by a global team of authors who have conducted and published the majority of critical research on atmospheric rivers over the past years. The book is intended to benefit practitioners in the fields of meteorology, hydrology and related disciplines, including students as well as senior researchers.

Download or read book The Role of Water and the Hydrological Cycle in Global Change written by Howard R. Oliver and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2013-06-29 with total page 472 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Water is an extremely important factor in global environmental change. Water influences the processes causing change. The human and economic consequences of changes in the water system can be very significant. The aim of this NATO Advanced Study Institute was to present a state-of-the-art assessment of the role of water in global change, ranging from a consideration of atmospheric processes to the social and political impacts of changes in water resources. Many initiatives have recently been developed, such as international conferences and research programmes in particular themes, but there was still a need for information from these diverse activities to be brought together. One of the aims of the ASI was to encourage cross-fertilization between the various disciplines looking at water in the global system. This book contains the expanded written versions of the lectures presented during the AS! held in Italy in May/June 1994. It falls into two basic parts. The first twelve chapters cover the role of water in the climate system and climate modelling. Various areas of the water balance including global budgets, the effect of each element of the water balance on regional and global climates, and procedures used to model hydrological processes at all scales are discussed. Precipitation, ice, lake, groundwater, land surface and atmospheric considerations are included together with hydrological process linkage to climate models. Ocean effects were not covered as they were considered to be outside the scope of this particular AS!.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The atmospheric branch of the hydrological cycle (AWC) is of considerable interest as it responds to changes in the energy cycle, greenhouse gases, aerosols and many other factors in the climate system. This PhD thesis investigates the components of the AWC from current radiosonde, reanalysis and blended datasets for the Southwest Pacific region. Examination of measurements of tropospheric humidity reveals outstanding issues in the radiosonde data, which requires some remedy measures be taken. After implementing a homogenization procedure to correct for biases and artificial changepoints in the data series, it is found that specific humidity exhibits spatially more consistent moistening at the 850 hPa level over most of the Southwest Pacific region and a contrast at 500 hPa between the moistening in the tropics and a drying in the subtropical South Pacific. An assessment is made of the balance of the estimated atmospheric water budgets. It is found that the budgets are far from closed even on the climatological time scale mainly due to issues in the estimates of precipitation (P) and evaporation (E). Therefore, it is advised to avoid the use of E – P in hydroclimate studies where the absolute amplitude is important. Variability of atmospheric moisture transport on different time scales has been explored. While the seasonally varying monthly mean of specific humidity ( ) and wind ( ) is the largest component to the total moisture transport in the tropics, the short term variations of and dominate the total moisture transport in the extratropics. Interannual extremes in moisture transport over New Zealand and their relationship to large-scale circulation are investigated. Changes in the dynamical component of moisture transport related to wind anomalies are the primary contributor to the extremes. Further analysis shows that these changes are driven by hemispheric scale longitudinal waves in the mid latitudes. The connection between moisture transport and precipitation variability is tight such that many of the anomalous precipitation events are associated with extreme moisture convergence/divergence. However, there are some instances where precipitation anomalies are explained by a combination of marginal deviation in evaporation and moisture transport. Evaporation alone is not a decisive factor for precipitation anomalies.

Download or read book Atmospheric Water Vapor Divergence and the Water Balance at the Earth's Surface written by Daniel H. Lufkin and published by . This book was released on 1959 with total page 56 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: After reviewing the nature and derivation of the northern hemisphere water vapor divergence data published by Starr and Peixoto (1958), the author presents a new and more detailed analysis of the divergence field. The relation between the atmospheric moisture divergence and the terrestrial branch of the hydrologic cycle is examined in the light of the geology and physiography of many regions which are associated with marked moisture divergence maxima and minima. The relation between the moisture divergence over the seas and the water budget of the sea surface is considered in a new treatment of the empirically derived correlation between salinity and moisture divergence, resulting in a new formula for the zonal mean salinity as a function of the zonal mean divergence. The latitudinal variation of the landward transport of oceanic moisture is calculated and is the first estimate ever made of this quantity. Finally, the implications of the latent heat transported by moisture are discussed in relation to the formulation of numerical models of the general circulation.
