SUMMARY:Assessing Convective and Stratiform Precipitation Paradigms in  the Tropics and Extratropics
DESCRIPTION:\nProf. Courtney Schumacher\nDepartment of Atmospheric Sciences\nTexas A&M University\nMonday September 26, 2022, 2 PM ET\n \nAbstract:\nConvective and stratiform precipitation form through very different dynamical and microphysical\nprocesses. Sometimes they form in isolation (such as convective rain from an individual cumulonimbus\nor stratiform rain from a nimbostratus cloud associated with isentropic lift), but often they form together\nand their interactions dictate the size, lifetime and overall impact of precipitating systems around the\nglobe. This talk will focus on space-based observations from the Global Precipitation Measurement\n(GPM) dual-frequency precipitation radar (DPR) to assess the relative importance of convective and\nstratiform rain processes in the production of precipitation in the tropics and extratropics. The talk will\nalso address how models approximate these different types of precipitation, especially GCMs that\nproduce rain using convective parameterizations and resolved, large-scale physics.\n\nBiosketch:\nDr. Courtney Schumacher is a Professor in the Department of Atmospheric Sciences at Texas A&M\nUniversity, where she has been on the faculty since 2003. She is an observer of storms who works with\nnumerical modelers, theoreticians, statisticians, chemists, and other specialists to push the bounds of\nknowledge on how storms become large and long lasting and what this storm organization means for\nrain and climate processes. Dr. Schumacher has been heavily involved in field campaigns throughout the\ntropics and is an active contributor to NASA’s satellite radar missions. She is a recipient of the AMS\nMeisinger Award, the holder of the Texas A&M University E.D. Brockett Professorship in Geosciences,\nand an AMS Fellow.\n\nWebinar:\nEvent site: https://go.umd.edu/schumacher ( https://go.umd.edu/schumacher )\nZoom Webinar: https://go.umd.edu/schumacherwebinar ( https://go.umd.edu/schumacherwebinar )\nZoom Meeting ID: 922 4551 0373\nZoom password: essic\nUS Toll: +13017158592\nGlobal call-in numbers: https://umd.zoom.us/u/aMElEpvNu ( https://umd.zoom.us/u/aMElEpvNu )\n\nFor IT assistance:\nCazzy Medley: cazzy@umd.edu\nResources:\nSeminar schedule & archive: https://go.umd.edu/essicseminar\nSeminar Google calendar: https://go.umd.edu/essicseminarcalendar\nSeminar recordings on Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/user/ESSICUMD\n
