This study develops nudging methods of data assimilation that will expand the utility of the forthcoming GOES-R satellite series by including data from the Geostationary Lightning Mapper (GLM) and Advanced Baseline Imager (ABI). We...
Deep convection is an important component of atmospheric circulations that affects many aspects of weather and climate. Therefore, improved understanding and realistic simulations of deep convection are critical to both operational and...
Lightning data provide a valuable tool for examining interactions between multi-scale weather phenomena. Weather events are determined by complex atmospheric interactions at various spatial and temporal scales. Long-term climatologies...
The Kennedy Space Center in east Central Florida is one of the few locations in the country that issues lightning advisories. These forecasts are vital to the daily operations of the Space Center and take on even greater significance...
This research focuses on the transport of chemical species to the upper troposphere/lower stratosphere (UTLS) by tropical cyclones (TCs). Species such as carbon monoxide, nitrogen oxides, and ozone have been found to exert a greater...
We will describe the development of a high-resolution, gridded forecast guidance product for warm season cloud-to-ground (CG) lightning in Florida. Four warm seasons of analysis data from the 20-km Rapid Update Cycle (RUC) and lightning...
A hurricane's destructive nature must be evaluated on as small a scale as possible to reveal the various types of mesoscale circulations that are embedded within the storm's overall wind field. This research develops a technique to...
This study has evaluated an existing hybrid three-dimensional variational ensemble transform Kalman filter (3DVAR-ETKF) ensemble data assimilation system using the Weather Research and Forecasting (WRF) model in realistic numerical...
Nitrogen oxides (NOx) produced by lightning (LNOx) play an important role in atmospheric chemistry, including the formation of tropospheric ozone (O3). Chemical transport models such as the Weather Research and Forecasting (WRF-Chem)...
