Sorted by: Date Added To NTRS in Descending order The Sensitivity of West African Squall Line Water Budgets to Land Cover Author(s): Mohr, Karen I.; Baker, R. David; Tao, Wei-Kuo; Famiglietti, James S. Abstract: This study used a two-dimensional coupled land/atmosphere (cloud-resolving) model to investigate the influence of land cover on the water budgets of squall lines in the Sahel. Study simulations used the same initial sounding ... NASA Center: Goddard Space Flight Center Publication Year: 2001 Added to NTRS: 2008-06-02 Document ID: 20020011610 Dust Devil Tracks and Wind Streaks in the North Polar Region of Mars: A Study of the 2007 Phoenix Mars Lander Sites Author(s): Drake, Nathan B.; Tamppari, Leslie K.; Baker, R. David; Cantor, Bruce A.; Hale, Amy S. Abstract: The 65-72 latitude band of the North Polar Region of Mars, where the 2007 Phoenix Mars Lander will land, was studied using satellite images from the Mars Global Surveyor (MGS) Mars Orbiter Camera Narrow-Angle (MOC-NA) ... NASA Center: Jet Propulsion Laboratory Publication Year: 2006 Added to NTRS: 2007-11-22 Document ID: 20070032968 High-Resolution Mesoscale Simulations of the 6-7 May 2000 Missouri Flash Flood: Impact of Model Initialization and Land Surface Treatment Author(s): Baker, R. David; Wang, Yansen; Tao, Wei-Kuo; Wetzel, Peter; Belcher, Larry R. Abstract: High-resolution mesoscale model simulations of the 6-7 May 2000 Missouri flash flood event were performed to test the impact of model initialization and land surface treatment on timing, intensity, and location of extreme ... NASA Center: Goddard Space Flight Center Publication Year: 2004 Added to NTRS: 2004-12-03 Document ID: 20040171259 Soil Moisture and Mesoscale Convective Complex Development During the 1993 US Midwest Flood: Results from the MM5-PLACE Atmosphere/Land-Surface Model Author(s): Baker, R. David; Wang, Yansen; Tao, Wei-Kuo; Wetzel, Peter Abstract: The 1993 US Midwest Flood produced record levels of flooding, in the Mississippi River Basin. This flooding resulted from repeated frontal passages and mesoscale convective complexes (MCCs) during the months of June and ... NASA Center: Goddard Space Flight Center Publication Year: 2000 Added to NTRS: 2004-11-03 Document ID: 20000111068 Mesoscale Simulations of a Florida Sea Breeze Using the PLACE Land Surface Model Coupled to a 1.5-Order Turbulence Parameterization Author(s): Lynn, Barry H.; Stauffer, David R.; Wetzel, Peter J.; Tao, Wei-Kuo; Perlin, Natal; Baker, R. David; Munoz, Ricardo; Boone, Aaron; Jia, Yiqin Abstract: A sophisticated land-surface model, PLACE, the Parameterization for Land Atmospheric Convective Exchange, has been coupled to a 1.5-order turbulent kinetic energy (TKE) turbulence sub-model. Both have been incorporated into ... NASA Center: Goddard Space Flight Center Publication Year: 1999 Added to NTRS: 2004-11-03 Document ID: 19990102922 Soil Moisture, Coastline Curvature, and Sea Breeze Initiated Precipitation Over Florida Author(s): Baker, R. David; Lynn, Barry H.; Boone, Aaron; Tao, Wei-Kuo Abstract: Land surface-atmosphere interaction plays a key role in the development of summertime convection and precipitation over the Florida peninsula. Land-ocean temperature contrasts induce sea-breeze circulations along both ... NASA Center: Goddard Space Flight Center Publication Year: 1999 Added to NTRS: 2004-11-03 Document ID: 20000013621 The Influence of Soil Moisture and Wind on Rainfall Distribution and Intensity in Florida Author(s): Baker, R. David; Lynn, Barry H.; Boone, Aaron; Tao, Wei-Kuo Abstract: Land surface processes play a key role in water and energy budgets of the hydrological cycle. For example, the distribution of soil moisture will affect sensible and latent heat fluxes, which in turn may dramatically ... NASA Center: Goddard Space Flight Center Publication Year: 1998 Added to NTRS: 2004-11-03 Document ID: 19990116494 Atmospheric Dynamics of Venus: Scales Large and Small Author(s): Baker, R. David Abstract: Over the past 30 years, Gerald Schubert has made significant contributions to the understanding of Venus atmospheric dynamics. His research of Venus' atmosphere spans spatial scales both large and small, including: Venus ...
