Dylan Lusk- Feb 20

Weather and Climate Systems Seminar A Climatology of TPVs in the ERA-Interim Dataset Dylan Lusk Wednesday, February 20th 3:00pm/NWC 5600   Tropopause Polar Vortices, or TPVs, are long-lived, coherent vortices located primarily on the tropopause over polar regions. These upper level features have been identified as important dynamical predecessors to surface cyclogenesis for some time, […]

Jordan Christian- Feb 13- Weather and Climate

Title: Regional Characteristics of Flash Droughts Across the United States   Abstract: Flash droughts are characterized by the rapid onset and development of drought conditions. When a combination of extreme atmospheric anomalies (such as lack of rainfall, higher surface temperatures, higher surface wind speeds, and higher vapor pressure deficient) persist for several weeks, rapid depletion […]

Validation of the FV3GFS and Future Plans for the NCEP Production Suite with Geoff Manikin- October 16th

ABSTRACT: In 2016, NCEP selected the Finite Volume 3 (FV3) dynamical core to be the cornerstone of its NWP efforts in the years ahead. The first step towards a Unified Forecast System (UFS) is the implementation of the FV3GFS which will become the operational global model in early 2019. This presentation explains the need for the UFS, examines objective and subjective results from real-time and retrospective testing of the FV3GFS, and discusses modeling plans going forward.
