Due to the current gap in continued funding from the U.S. National Science Foundation (NSF), the NSF Unidata Program Center has temporarily paused most operations. See NSF Unidata Pause in Most Operations for details.
Hi all, I noticed something recently and was wondering if anyone knew more about it. I see that occasionally, but not always, the center point of a mesoscale region will vary slightly between the bands. It appears to correlate with the spatial resolution of the bands. I've only noticed this twice so far, but both times were when it was centered pretty far west. I suppose this would make some sense as spatial resolution would change with respect to distance from nadir. For example, presently Mesoscale-1 is centered just off the California coast. the 1km bands have a center point of 39.5, -128.2, band 02 (0.5km) is at 39.5, -128.3, and the 2km bands are all at 39.4, -128.0. What I'm wondering is how frequently might this occur, if it really is correlated with distance from nadir, and if it will only ever result in differences between bands of different spatial resolutions. Has anyone else noticed this? Thanks, -Mike ====================== Mike Zuranski Meteorology Support Analyst College of DuPage - Nexlab Weather.cod.edu ======================
