Characteristics of Convective Clouds Over the Indian Monsoon Zone from Weather Radar Data
Deep convective clouds play an important role in global energy balance through vertical transport of water vapor, momentum and energy, altering radiation and also influence hydrological cycle via precipitation. These clouds ... -
Energetics of monsoon variability over the last 22,000 years
The interpretation of proxies of paleo monsoons has been based primarily on changes in incident solar radiation. The role of feedbacks has not been examined in depth. In this thesis, we have used a diagnostic model of ... -
An Energetics Perspective for the Response of the Indian Summer Monsoon to Land Processes in a Coupled General Circulation Model
The Indian summer monsoon is a coupled land-ocean-atmosphere phenomenon that supplies about 80% of the annual rainfall that the region receives. The monsoon season typically begins on June 1 st with a steep rise in rainfall ... -
Moist and Dry Dynamics in Shallow Water and General Circulation Models
Various aspects of dry and moist atmospheric dynamics are explored through systems of varying complexity, ranging from a 2-D shallow water model to a more complex 3-D general circulation model. First, we examine the response ...
