Using High-Resolution Weather Data To Improve Winter Weather Maintenance Operations, Michael Baldwin
Using High-Resolution Weather Data To Improve Winter Weather Maintenance Operations, Michael Baldwin
Purdue Road School
Substantial resources are required for winter maintenance operations. This presentation focuses on more accurate and precise weather information that can help reduce the uncertainty related to winter weather, resulting in improved decision-making and significant cost savings for winter operations.
The Influence Of The Tibetan Plateau Elevation On The Global And Asian Monsoons, Rene Paul Acosta
The Influence Of The Tibetan Plateau Elevation On The Global And Asian Monsoons, Rene Paul Acosta
Open Access Theses
It has been long hypothesized that large-scale topographic changes, such as the surface uplift of the Tibetan Plateau, impacts the development of the South Asian and East Asian monsoons and influences other monsoon regions. However, recent modeling has shown that spatial distribution of the global monsoon, which includes the South Asian and East Asian monsoons is largely unaffected by the elevation of the plateau. In this study, we present results from a series of modern day simulations using CESM1.0 in a mixed-layer (slab ocean) configuration. The Tibetan Plateau height is varied from double that of the modern maximum plateau elevation …
