Boundaries of research : civilian leadership, military funding, and the international network surrounding the development of numerical weather prediction in the United States

Creator:: Harper, Kristine C.
Abstract:: American meteorology was synonymous with subjective weather forecasting in the early twentieth century. Controlled by the Weather Bureau and with no academic programs of its own, the few hundred extant meteorologists had no standing in the scientific community. Until the American Meteorological Society was founded in 1919, meteorologists had no...

Models for statistical dynamic prediction of the 500-millibar surface

Creator:: Fossum, Robert Ross
Abstract:: The purpose of this thesis is to construct several stochastic process models for combined statistical dynamic prediction of the 500-millibar pressure surface for the northern hemisphere. To achieve this, a random forcing function is added to the spectral form of the nondivergent vorticity equation. Three models, one linear and two...

Statistical surface wind forecasting at Goodnoe Hills, Washington

Creator:: Curtis, Joel C.
Abstract:: Multiple linear regression was used to develop equations for 12-, 24-, and 36-hour surface wind forecasts for the wind energy site at Goodnoe Hills. Equations were derived separately for warm and cool seasons. The potential predictors included LFM II model output, MOS surface wind forecasts extrapolated from surrounding stations, pressure...

Development of a synoptic map-pattern climatology to supplement current weather forecasting methods

Creator:: Frey, Melissa D. (Melissa Dawn)
Abstract:: Many meteorologists rely heavily on their experience of past weather events to supplement their forecasting tools, such as using past experience to help decide between conflicting numerical weather prediction models. Experiential knowledge is an important piece of forecasting, however it is highly subjective and variable from one forecaster to another....

Measuring fire weather and forest inflammability

Creator:: Gisborne, Harry Thomas, 1893-1949 and United States. Department of Agriculture
Abstract:: In the measurement of fire weather and forest inflammability, now practiced regularly at more than 90 forest stations in northern Idaho and western Montana, it is necessary to use many methods that are peculiar to this work. Some of these methods are familiar to meteorologists, but few foresters have had...

Nowcast/forecast of storm surge and drawdown using a hybrid FE/ANN approach

Creator:: Darnell, Joel T.
Abstract:: In the northwestern Gulf of Mexico there is a need for reliable water level forecasts to facilitate safe commercial navigation, marine construction, and emergency management. Though the low amplitude tides of the region can be predicted with conventional harmonic techniques, frequent strong storms make accurate forecasts of water levels difficult....
