Objective Analysis of the Thermodynamic Field Consistent with the Energy Supply and the Cumulus Distribution

[摘要] A method of objective analysis of the temperature and moisture fields of the atmosphere taking into account of the energy supply from the underlying sea surface and the cumulus cloud distribution is discussed in a most simplified formulation. The thermal and moisture fields in the subcloud and cloud layers, are obtained objectively by using a set of linear equation derived from the thermodynamic equation and the continuity equation of water vapor in which certain empirical relations concerning the connective transfer of the heat energy and assumptions of steady and geostrophic conditions are introduced.
