Spatial-Scale Characteristics of Precipitation Simulated by Regional Climate Models and the Implications for Hydrological Modeling
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: recipitation simulated by regional climate models (RCMs) is generally biased with respect to observations, especially at the local scale of a few tens of kilometers. This study investigates how well two different RCMs are ...
A Possible Constraint on Regional Precipitation Intensity Changes under Global Warming
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Changes in daily precipitation versus intensity under a global warming scenario in two regional climate simulations of the United States show a well-recognized feature of more intense precipitation. More important, by ...
Recent Greenland Accumulation Estimated from Regional Climate Model Simulations and Ice Core Analysis
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The accumulation defined as ?precipitation minus evaporation? over Greenland has been simulated with the high-resolution limited-area regional climate model HIRHAM4 applied over an Arctic integration domain. This simulation ...
Quantifying Energy and Mass Fluxes Controlling Godthåbsfjord Freshwater Input in a 5-km Simulation (1991–2012)
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: reshwater runoff to fjords with marine-terminating glaciers along the Greenland Ice Sheet margin has an impact on fjord circulation and potentially ice sheet mass balance through increasing heat transport to the glacier ...
