Effects of Different Rain Parameterizations on the Simulation of Mesoscale Orographic Precipitation
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: A detailed comparison is made between the results obtained from two microphysical parameterizations capable of simulating cloud and precipitation processes in a mesoscale model. The behavior of each microphysical scheme ...
A Modeling Study of the Influence of Ice Scavenging on the Chemical Composition of Liquid-Phase Precipitation of a Cumulonimbus Cloud
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Evidence of the efficient removal of chemicals by ice particles has been deduced from past field experiments and laboratory studies. However, the ice phase has been poorly represented in prior cloud chemistry modeling. ...
Evaluation of RadVil, a Radar-Based Very Short-Term Rainfall Forecasting Model
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: A very short-term rainfall forecast model is tested on actual radar data. This model, called RadVil, takes advantages of voluminal radar data through vertically integrated liquid (VIL) water content measurements. The model ...
Numerical Simulation of Orographic Enhancement of Rain with a Mesoscale Model
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Orographic precipitation enhancement associated with the feeder mechanism proposed by Bergeron has been simulated using a two dimensions model based upon primitive equations including detailed parameter microphysics. A ...
Impact of Two Microphysical Schemes upon Gas Scavenging and Deposition in a Mesoscale Meteorological Model
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Two widely used microphysical schemes are compared to evaluate their possible impact on wet deposition mechanisms. They are based upon different spectral distributions for raindrops (Marshall-Palmer and lognormal distributions) ...
