Reichler, Thomas J. | A stratospheric connection to Atlantic climate variability | It is well recognized that the stratosphere is connected to tropospheric weather and climate. In particular, extreme stratospheric circulation events and their dynamical feedback on the troposphere are known to play a major role1. However, what is not known to date is whether the state of the strat... | 2012-01-01 | |

Reichler, Thomas J. | Breaking down the tropospheric circulation response by forcing | This study describes simulated changes in the general circulation during the twentieth and twenty -first centuries due to a number of individual direct radiat ive forcings and warming sea surface temperatures, by examining very long time-slice simulations created with an enhanced version of the Geop... | 2012-01-01 | |

Rosen, Paul Andrew | Data management and analysis with WRF and SFIRE | We introduce several useful utilities in development for the creation and analysis of real wildland fire simulations using WRF and SFIRE. These utilities exist as standalone programs and scripts as well as extensions to other well known software. Python web scrapers automate the process of downloadi... | 2012-01-01 | |

Steenburgh, William James | Episodic dust events of Utahs Wasatch Front and adjoining region | Episodic dust events cause hazardous air quality along Utah's Wasatch Front and dust loading of the snowpack in the adjacentWasatch Mountains. This paper presents a climatology of episodic dust events of the Wasatch Front and adjoining region that is based on surface weather observations from the Sa... | 2012-01-01 | |

Garrett, Timothy J. | Fall speed measurement and high-resolution multi-angle photography of hydrometeors in free fall | We describe here a new instrument for imaging hydrometeors in free fall. The Multi-Angle Snowflake Camera (MASC) captures high-resolution photographs of hydrometeors from three angles while simultaneously measuring their fall speed. Based on the stereoscopic photographs captured over the two months ... | 2012-01-01 | |

Steenburgh, William James | Great Salt Lake-effect precipitation: observed frequency, characteristics, and associated environmental factors | This climatology examines the environmental factors controlling the frequency, occurrence, and morphology of Great Salt Lake-effect (GSLE) precipitation events using cool season (16 September-15 May) Weather Surveillance Radar-1988 Doppler (WSR-88D) imagery, radiosonde soundings, and MesoWest surfac... | 2012-01-01 | |

Garrett, Timothy J. | Modes of growth in dynamic systems | Regardless of a system's complexity or scale, its growth can be considered to be a spontaneous thermodynamic response to a local convergence of down-gradient material flows. Here it is shown how system growth can be constrained to a few distinct modes that depend on the time integral of past flows a... | 2012-01-01 | |

Reichler, Thomas J. | Multidecadal drought cycles in the Great Basin recorded by the Great Salt Lake: modulation from a transition-phase teleconnection | This study investigates the meteorological conditions associated with multidecadal drought cycles as revealed by lake level fluctuation of the Great Salt Lake (GSL). The analysis combined instrumental, proxy, and simulation datasets, including the Twentieth Century Reanalysis version 2, the North Am... | 2012-01-01 | |

Garrett, Timothy J. | No way out? the double-bind in seeking global prosperity alongside mitigated climate change | In a prior study (Garrett, 2011), I introduced a simple economic growth model designed to be consistent with general thermodynamic laws. Unlike traditional economic models, civilization is viewed only as a well-mixed global whole with no distinction made between individual nations, economic sectors,... | 2012-01-01 |
