The Columbia, Missouri, Heat Island Experiment (COHIX) and the Influence of a Small City on the Local Climatology
Maune, William C.; Lupo, Anthony R., 1966-; Guinan, Patrick E.; Lam, Janelle E.; Akyuz, F. Adnan; Oravetz, Angela M.; Market, Patrick S. (Missouri Academy of Science, 2004-05)The heat island effect is a well known feature in the microclimate of urban areas but only a few studies have addressed the effect for smaller urban areas. We examine here the impact of Columbia, Missouri and the University ... -
Interannual and interdecadal variability in the predominant Pacific region SST anomaly patterns and their impact on climate in the mid-Mississippi valley region
Kelsey, Eric P.; Guinan, Patrick E.; Lupo, Anthony R., 1966-; Woolard, J. E.; Mokhov, Igor I.; Akyuz, F. Adnan; Weitlich, Derrick K. (Centro Ciencias Atmosfera UNAM, 2007-02)Previous research has demonstrated that Pacific Region SSTs and SST anomalies can be separated into seven general synoptic classifications (“clusters”) (A-G). Clusters B and G (C, D, and F) [A and E] were shown to be ... -
Interannual Variability of Snowfall Events Southwest Missouri and Snowfall to- Liquid Water Equivalents at the Springfield WFO
Lupo, Anthony R., 1966-; Albert, Andrew; Hearst, Ronald; Market, Patrick S.; Akyuz, F. Adnan; Allmeyer, Cyndi L. (National Weather Association, 2005-12)In order to address the difficult issue of forecasting snowfall amounts for the general public, forecasters must be intimately familiar with the climatological behavior of snowfall events, and associated snowfall-to-liquid ... -
The Presentation of Temperature Information in Television Broadcasts: What is Normal?
Schmidt, Dave; McCoy, Elizabeth A.; Aldrich, Eric; Akyuz, F. Adnan; Beiger, David G.; Allen, Stacy N.; Skellenger, Sara; Edwards, Mark; Kelsey, Eric P.; Lupo, Anthony R., 1966-; Wise, Eric; Halcomb, Chris (National Weather Association, 2003-12)In a typical weather broadcast, observed daily temperature information such as maximum and minimum temperatures are shown and compared to the daily average or “normal”. Such information, however, does not accurately ... -
The Short and Long-term Variability of F2 or Stronger (Significant) Tornadoes in the Central Plains
Chambers, Matthew D.; Lupo, Anthony R., 1966-; Akyuz, F. Adnan (Missouri Academy of Science, 2004-08)An analysis of the interannual and interdecadal variability of significant tornado events that occurred over a four state region in the central plains was performed over a 53 year period (1950 - 2002) using the Storm ...
