Impact of Cloud Microphysics on the Development of Trailing Stratiform Precipitation in a Simulated Squall Line: Comparison of One- and Two-Moment Schemes

Hugh G. Morrison, G. Thompson, Valerian I. Tatarskii
2009

A new two-moment cloud microphysics scheme predicting the mixing ratios and number concentrations of five species (i.e., cloud droplets, cloud ice, snow, rain, and graupel) has been implemented into… (More)

A Study of Aerosol Impacts on Clouds and Precipitation Development in a Large Winter Cyclone

G. Thompson, Trude Eidhammer
2014

AbstractAerosols influence cloud and precipitation development in complex ways due to myriad feedbacks at a variety of scales from individual clouds through entire storm systems. This paper describes… (More)

A comparison of statistical and dynamical downscaling of winter precipitation over complex terrain

Ethan D. Gutmann, Roy Martin Rasmussen, +5 authors G. Thompson
2012

AbstractStatistical downscaling is widely used to improve spatial and/or temporal distributions of meteorological variables from regional and global climate models. This downscaling is important… (More)

Changes in hail and flood risk in high-resolution simulations over Colorado's mountains

Global climate models cannot resolve hailstorms explicitly, so it is unclear whether a warmer climate will change hailstorm frequency and intensity. Now a study using high-resolution model… (More)

High-Resolution Simulations of Wintertime Precipitation in the Colorado Headwaters Region: Sensitivity to Physics Parameterizations

Changhai Liu, Kyoko Ikeda, G. Thompson, Roy Martin Rasmussen, Jimy Dudhia
2011

AbstractAn investigation was conducted on the effects of various physics parameterizations on wintertime precipitation predictions using a high-resolution regional climate model. The objective was to… (More)

Improvement of Microphysical Parameterization through Observational Verification Experiment

Mark T. Stoelinga, Peter V. Hobbs, +9 authors Bradley Roy Colman
2003

Abstract Despite continual increases in numerical model resolution and significant improvements in the forecasting of many meteorological parameters, progress in quantitative precipitation… (More)

Pentoxifylline in ALS: a double-blind, randomized, multicenter, placebo-controlled trial.

Barry P. Levin, G. Thompson, Levy H Mitsumoto, Petra Kaufmann
Neurology
2006

Objective: To assess the efficacy and safety of pentoxifylline, a US Food and Drug Administration–approved drug, in patients with ALS treated with riluzole. Methods: The authors conducted a… (More)

Real-Time Mesoscale Prediction on Workstations

William R. Cotton, G. Thompson, Paul W. Mielke
1994

Abstract Experience in performing real-time mesoscale numerical prediction forecasts using the Regional Atmospheric Modeling System (RAMS) over Colorado for a winter season on high-performance… (More)

Sensitivity of a Simulated Midlatitude Squall Line to Parameterization of Raindrop Breakup

Hugh Morrison, Sarah Anne Tessendorf, Kyoko Ikeda, G. Thompson
2012

AbstractThis paper describes idealized simulations of a squall line observed on 20 June 2007, in central Oklahoma. Results are compared with measurements from dual-polarization radar and surface… (More)

Microphysical Processes Within Winter Orographic Cloud and Precipitation Systems

One of the most challenging aspects of understanding and forecasting weather in the mountainous environment is the phenomenon of orographic precipitation. While it is the dynamics of orographic flow… (More)
