Parameterization of Convective Precipitation in Mesoscale Numerical Models: A Critical Review
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Current approaches for incorporating cumulus convection into mesoscale numerical models are divided into three groups. The traditional approach utilizes cumulus parameterization at convectively unstable points and explicit ...
Implicit Versus Explicit Convective Heating in Numerical Weather Prediction Models
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The ability of several explicit formulations of convective heating to predict the precipitation associated with a mesoscale convective complex was compared to that of a cumulus parameterization on a ½ deg latitude-longitude ...
A Regional Climate Model Study of the Scale Dependence of Cloud-Radiation Interactions
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The scale dependence of cloud-radiation interaction associated with the parameterizations for fractional cloudiness and radiation used in a global climate model is studied by examining the averages, for different spatial ...
Northern Hemispheric Interannual Teleconnection Patterns and Their Changes Due to the Greenhouse Effect
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Observed and general circulation climate model (GCM) simulated interannual teleconnection patterns in the Northern Hemisphere are compared on a monthly basis. The study was based on 1946?1991 observations and two separate ...
