Simulation of Present Climate over Southeast Asia Using the Non-Hydrostatic Regional Climate Model
Abstract This study evaluates the performance of the Non-hydrostatic Regional Climate Model (NHRCM) in simulating the present climate over Southeast Asia to determine its applicability…

Quantifying resilience to flooding among households and local government units using system dynamics: a case study in Metro Manila
Abstract A generic systems dynamics (SD) model template for resilience is adapted to analyse flooding impacts on household assets and local government assets of Pasig…

Sensitivity of Southeast Asia rainfall simulations to cumulus and air-sea flux parameterizations in RegCM4
Abstract We investigated the performance of RegCM4 in simulating rainfall over Southeast Asia with different combinations of deep-convection and air-sea flux parameterization schemes. Four different…

WRF simulation of the heavy rainfall over Metropolitan Manila, Philippines during tropical cyclone Ketsana: a sensitivity study
Abstract In September 2009, tropical cyclone Ketsana brought record rainfall over Metropolitan Manila, Philippines, resulting in widespread flooding and incapacitated the city for days. The…

Ground-based detection of nighttime clouds above Manila Observatory (14.64°N, 121.07°E) using a digital camera
Abstract Ground-based cloud detection at nighttime is achieved by using cameras, lidars, and ceilometers. Despite these numerous instruments gathering cloud data, there is still an…

Assessing the Sensitivity of the Non-Hydrostatic Regional Climate Model to Boundary Conditions and Convective Schemes over the Philippines
Abstract Regional climate models have been useful in climate studies and in downscaling climate projections from global climate models, especially for areas characterized by complex…

Lorentz Dispersion Law from classical Hydrogen electron orbits in AC electric field via geometric algebra
Abstract We studied the orbit of an electron revolving around an infinitely massive nucleus of a large classical Hydrogen atom subject to an AC electric…

Skew ray tracing in a step-index optical fiber using geometric algebra
Abstract We used geometric algebra to compute the paths of skew rays in a cylindrical, step-index multimode optical fiber. To do this, we used the…

Observations of the temporal variability in aerosol properties and their relationships to meteorology in the summer monsoonal South China Sea/East Sea: the scale-dependent role of monsoonal flows, the Madden–Julian Oscillation, tropical cyclones, squall lines and cold pools
Abstract. In a joint NRL/Manila Observatory mission, as part of the Seven SouthEast Asian Studies program (7-SEAS), a 2-week, late September 2011 research cruise in…
