Atmospheric River Tracking Method Intercomparison Project (ARTMIP): project goals and experimental design (2018, background): “ARs are often associated with extreme winter storms and heavy precipitation along the west coasts of midlatitude continents, including the western US, western Europe, and Chile (e.g., Ralph et al., 2004; Neiman et al., 2008; Viale and Nuñez, 2011; Lavers and Villarini, 2015; Waliser and Guan, 2107).”
Exploring earth's atmosphere with radio occultation: contributions to weather, climate and space weather (2011, unknown): “Figure 19 shows a horizontal cross section through a front and “atmospheric river” constructed from 12 COSMIC soundings located approximately perpendicular to the front (Neiman et al., 2008).”
Comparing radiosonde and COSMIC atmospheric profile data to quantify differences among radiosonde types and the effects of imperfect collocation on comparison statistics (2010, methodology): “to be useful inmonitoring atmospheric mesoscale phenomena in data‐spare regions [Neiman et al., 2008].”
