Adjoint Sensitivity of Surface Precipitation to Initial Conditions
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The adjoint version of the Global Environmental Multiscale model including a comprehensive package of simplified and linearized physical processes (large-scale condensation, deep moist convection, vertical diffusion, and ...
The Canadian Land Data Assimilation System (CaLDAS): Description and Synthetic Evaluation Study
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: he Canadian Land Data Assimilation System (CaLDAS) has been developed at the Meteorological Research Division of Environment Canada (EC) to better represent the land surface initial states in environmental prediction and ...
Near-Surface and Land Surface Forecast System of the Vancouver 2010 Winter Olympic and Paralympic Games
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: high-resolution 2D near-surface and land surface model was developed to produce snow and temperature forecasts over the complex alpine region of the Vancouver 2010 Winter Olympic and Paralympic Games. The model is driven ...
Operational Implementation of the ISBA Land Surface Scheme in the Canadian Regional Weather Forecast Model. Part I: Warm Season Results
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The summertime improvement resulting from the operational implementation of a new surface modeling and assimilation strategy into the Canadian regional weather forecasting system is described in this study. The surface ...
Operational Implementation of the ISBA Land Surface Scheme in the Canadian Regional Weather Forecast Model. Part II: Cold Season Results
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The performance of a modified version of the snow scheme included in the Interactions between Surface?Biosphere?Atmosphere (ISBA) land surface scheme, which was operationally implemented into the regional weather forecast ...
Evaluation of Snowpack Simulations over the Canadian Rockies with an Experimental Hydrometeorological Modeling System
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: To improve the representation of the land surface in their operational numerical weather prediction (NWP) models, the Meteorological Research Division of Environment Canada (EC) is developing an external hydrometeorological ...
Operational Implementation of the Fritsch–Chappell Convective Scheme in the 24-km Canadian Regional Model
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The objective and subjective evaluations that led to the implementation of the Fritsch and Chappell (FC) convective scheme in the new 24-km Canadian operational regional model are described in this study. Objective ...
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 ...
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 ...
