RISA Simple Framework for Testing the Quality of Atmospheric Limited-Area Models
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: A framework is designed for efficient experimentation with atmospheric forecast models on a limited area. It is shown that extended range atmospheric simulations on a limited area, using analyzed boundary values from a ...
Very High-Resolution Regional Climate Simulations over Scandinavia—Present Climate
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The hydrological cycle on a regional scale is poorly represented with a present-day coarse resolution general circulation model (GCM). With a dynamical downscaling technique, in which a regional higher-resolution climate ...
Streamflow Data from Small Basins: A Challenging Test to High-Resolution Regional Climate Modeling
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: and surface models and large-scale hydrological models provide the basis for studying impacts of climate and anthropogenic changes on continental- to regional-scale hydrology. Hence, there is a need for comparison and ...
Dynamical Downscaling with Reinitializations: A Method to Generate Finescale Climate Datasets Suitable for Impact Studies
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: o retain the sequence of events of a regional climate model (RCM) simulation driven by a reanalysis, a method that has not been widely adopted uses an RCM with frequent reinitializations toward its driving field. In this ...
Global Climate Model Performance over Alaska and Greenland
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The performance of a set of 15 global climate models used in the Coupled Model Intercomparison Project is evaluated for Alaska and Greenland, and compared with the performance over broader pan-Arctic and Northern Hemisphere ...
Greenland Ice Sheet Surface Mass-Balance Modeling in a 131-Yr Perspective, 1950–2080
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Fluctuations in the Greenland ice sheet (GrIS) surface mass balance (SMB) and freshwater influx to the surrounding oceans closely follow climate fluctuations and are of considerable importance to the global eustatic sea ...
Surface Mass Balance and Runoff Modeling Using HIRHAM4 RCM at Kangerlussuaq (Søndre Strømfjord), West Greenland, 1950–2080
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: A regional atmospheric model, the HIRHAM4 regional climate model (RCM) using boundary conditions from the ECHAM5 atmosphere?ocean general circulation model (AOGCM), was downscaled to a 500-m gridcell increment using SnowModel ...
Can Regional Climate Models Represent the Indian Monsoon?
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: he ability of four regional climate models (RCMs) to represent the Indian monsoon was verified in a consistent framework for the period 1981?2000 using the 45-yr European Centre for Medium-Range Weather Forecasts (ECMWF) ...

Hydrological Processes in Regional Climate Model Simulations of the Central United States Flood of June–July 1993
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Thirteen regional climate model (RCM) simulations of June?July 1993 were compared with each other and observations. Water vapor conservation and precipitation characteristics in each RCM were examined for a 10° ? 10° ...
