Possibility of Long Range Precipitation Forecasting for the Hawaiian Islands
Author: Samuel B. Solot
Publisher:
ISBN:
Category : Long-range weather forecasting
Languages : en
Pages : 666
Book Description
In order to establish a meteorological forecasting system, it is necessary to find a direct relationship between measurable physical states of the atmosphere and the end product, the weather element to be forecast. The long range forecaster is quite limited in his choice of physical parameters. In fact only the very large-scale dynamics of the atmosphere which can be expressed in terms of mean pressure patterns are amenable to long range analysis. Thus the problem reduces to finding a link between mean planetary pressure patterns and precipitation in the Hawaiian Islands

The objects of the American Meteorological Society are "the development and dissemination of knowledge of meteorology in all its phases and applications, and the advancement of its professional ideals." The organization of the Society took place in affiliation with the American Association for the Advancement of Science at Saint Louis, Missouri, December 29, 1919, and its incorporation, at Washington, D. C., January 21, 1920. The work of the Society is carried on by the Bulletin, the Journal, and Meteorological Monographs, by papers and discussions at meetings of the Society, through the offices of the Secretary and the Executive Secretary, and by correspondence. All of the Americas are represented in the membership of the Society as well as many foreign countries.

Prevailing Trade Winds
Author: Marie Sanderson
Publisher: University of Hawaii Press
ISBN: 9780824814915
Category : Nature
Languages : en
Pages : 140
Book Description
The Hawaiian Islands are small in area, but they resemble continents in miniature with climates ranging from tropical rainforest to desert to tundra. Prevailing Trade Winds: Weather and Climate in Hawaii, intended for students of geography, biology, ecology, and hydrology, for visitors interested in the natural phenomena of the places they visit, and for island residents, explains in clear language the many aspects of the climate and weather of Hawaii. Weather is usually defined as the current state of the atmosphere, while climate denotes average weather and includes the variability and frequency of the factors that produce weather. The authors of this volume discuss the factors that control climate; the radiation, energy, and water balances; the impact of climate on human activity; the climate-related meanings of many place names in Hawaii; and the importance of the climate of Hawaii for scientific research. Contributors: Paul Ekern, Tom Giambelluca, Dennis Nullet, Saul Price, Marie Sanderson, and Thomas Schroeder.

Three-dimensional Wind Flow and Resulting Precipitation in a Northern California Storm
Author: United States. Weather Bureau
Publisher:
ISBN:
Category : Atmospheric models
Languages : en
Pages : 56
Book Description
By careful consideration of the observed winds and with the aid of various empirical and dynamics relationships, a steady-state 3-dimensional wind flow is deduced over northern California for a 24-hour stormy period. The production (or evaporation) of precipitation elements is estimated for all parts of the flow, the surviving elements are followed down to the surface, and the resulting precipitation with the observed.
