Subgrid-Scale Variability for Thermodynamic Variables in an Offline Land Surface Prediction System
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: his study presents a numerical analysis of the impact of the horizontal resolution on the forecast capability of the Canadian offline land surface prediction system (SPS; formerly known as GEM-Surf) forced by the 15-km ...
Warm Season Evaluation of Soil Moisture Prediction in the Soil, Vegetation, and Snow (SVS) Scheme
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: new land surface scheme has been developed at Environment and Climate Change Canada (ECCC) to provide surface fluxes of momentum, heat, and moisture for the Global Environmental Multiscale (GEM) atmospheric model. In this ...
Assimilation of Passive L-band Microwave Brightness Temperatures in the Canadian Land Data Assimilation System: Impacts on Short-Range Warm Season Numerical Weather Prediction
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: AbstractThis study examines the impacts of assimilating Soil Moisture Active Passive (SMAP) L-band brightness temperatures (TBs) on warm season short-range numerical weather prediction (NWP) forecasts. Focusing upon the ...
Evaluation of the Snow Cover in the Soil, Vegetation, and Snow (SVS) Land Surface Model
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
The Multibudget Soil, Vegetation, and Snow (SVS) Scheme for Land Surface Parameterization: Offline Warm Season Evaluation
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: new land surface parameterization scheme, named the Soil, Vegetation, and Snow (SVS) scheme, was recently developed at Environment and Climate Change Canada to replace the operationally used Interactions between Soil, ...
Quantifying Snow Mass Mission Concept Trade-Offs Using an Observing System Simulation Experiment
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Because of its location, Canada is particularly affected by snow processes and their impact on the atmosphere and hydrosphere. Yet, snow mass observations that are ongoing, global, frequent (1?5 days), and at high enough ...
