Abstract: We give a detailed description of an atmospheric boundary layer model capable of simulating the diurnal cycles of wind, temperature and humidity. The model includes a formulation of various physical processes (radiative ...

Abstract: The implementation of a predictive cloud-water scheme in a regional finite-element weather prediction model is presented. The model employed in this study includes efficient and accurate numerical techniques and is equipped ...

Abstract: The formulation of the regional model recently implemented by the Atmospheric Environment Service of Canada for its operational 48 h NWP forecasts is presented. The emphasis is put on the parameterization of the physical ...

Abstract: The next generation of high-performance computers will be based on clusters of shared-memory symmetric multiprocessor (SMP) nodes interconnected by a low-latency, high-bandwidth network. In this paper, the parallel performance ...

Abstract: The MERMOZ (Montreal-96 Experiment on Regional Mixing and Ozone) field experiment was conducted in the greater Montreal area in June 1996. The measurement program was designed to examine several aspects of boundary layer ...

Abstract: Recent developments in numerical modeling and computer technology will soon allow for limited-areaproduction-type numerical weather prediction at a resolution of 1-2 km. This advance opens exciting prospects for the ...
