Multi-Model Subseasonal Prediction Skill Assessment of Water Vapor Transport Associated With Atmospheric Rivers Over the Western US

Subseasonal-to-seasonal (S2S) forecasts of atmospheric rivers (ARs) are in high demand in the water supply management and flood control communities. This study focuses on a new …

Atmospheric River Reconnaissance Workshop Promotes Research and Operations Partnership

Improved Forecast Skill Through the Assimilation of Dropsonde Observations From the Atmospheric River Reconnaissance Program

Landfalling atmospheric rivers (ARs) over the western US are responsible for similar to 30%-50 % of the annual precipitation, and their accurate forecasts are essential for …

Data Gaps within Atmospheric Rivers over the Northeastern Pacific

Conventional observations of atmospheric rivers (ARs) over the northeastern Pacific Ocean are sparse. Satellite radiances are affected by the presence of clouds and heavy …

West Coast Forecast Challenges and Development of Atmospheric River Reconnaissance

Water management and flood control are major challenges in the western United States. They are heavily influenced by atmospheric river (AR) storms that produce both beneficial …
