Parameterization of Orography-Induced Turbulence in a Mesobeta--Scale Model
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The possibility of extending existing techniques for turbulence parameterization in the planetary boundary layer to attitude, orography-induced turbulence events is examined. Starting from a well-tested scheme, we show ...
An Experiment with an Advanced Surface Parameterization in a Mesobeta-Scale Model. Part III: Comparison with the HAPEX-MOBILHY Dataset
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: In this last part, a detailed comparison of the model predictions with all the HAPEX-MOBILHY dataset available within a mesoscale subdomain is carried out. The simulation subdomain encompasses a fraction of a pine forest ...
An Experiment with an Advanced Surface Parameterization in a Mesobeta-Scale Model. Part I: Implementation
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: As a follow-up to the HAPEX-MOBILHY experiment in southwestern France, an advanced parameterization of land-surface processes has been designed. This paper and two companions report on the implementation of this new ...
An Experiment with an Advanced Surface Parameterization in a Mesobeta-Scale Model. Part II: The 16 June 1986 Simulation
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: In this second part, we report on a one-day simulation with the French Weather Service limited-area model PERIDOT, including the new parameterization of land-surface energy budget. The emphasis is put on the assessment of ...
Momentum Budget over the Pyrénées: The PYREX Experiment
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Although the qualitative influence of mountains over the atmosphere has been known for a long time, numerous deficiencies, linked to orography, are still noted, either in forecasts by regional models, or in the long-term ...
PYREX: A Summary of Findings
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: About six years ago, the planned field experiment Pyrenean Experiment (PYREX) was presented in the Bulletin. After a successful field phase in October and November 1990, and much work to prepare a consistent database, ...
THORPEX Research and the Science of Prediction
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: he Observing System Research and Predictability Experiment (THORPEX) was a 10-yr, international research program organized by the World Meteorological Organization?s World Weather Research Program. THORPEX was motivated ...
