Abstract: A simple parameterization of cloud water related variables has been developed which can be used in meteorological models that use a prognostic equation for the turbulent kinetic energy. Based on the results of large-eddy ...

Abstract: A large eddy simulation (LES) model, used for studying the dry convective boundary layer, has been extended with an equation for the total water specific humidity and a condensation scheme to simulate the partly cloudy ...

Abstract: A large-eddy simulation (LES) model has been utilized to study nonprecipitating Shallow Convective clouds such as observed during the undisturbed BOMEX period in the trade wind areas. By choosing a realistic large-scale ...

Abstract: A simple method is proposed to extend a low-order turbulence scheme including a subgrid-scale cloudiness scheme to represent not only nonconvective (stratiform) cloudiness and turbulence but also shallow, nonprecipitating ...

Abstract: Large-eddy simulation (LES) results of three prototype convective boundary layers (CBL) are used to study flux budgets and to test simple expressions for scalar and buoyancy fluxes. The simulated CBLs differ in their ...
