Numerical Study of Convection Observed during the Winter Monsoon Experiment Using a Mesoscale Two-Dimensional Model
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: A two-dimensional version of the Pennsylvania State University mesoscale model has been applied to Winter Monsoon Experiment data in order to simulate the diurnally occurring convection observed over the South China Sea. ...
A Nonhydrostatic Version of the Penn State–NCAR Mesoscale Model: Validation Tests and Simulation of an Atlantic Cyclone and Cold Front
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: A nonhydrostatic extension to the Pennsylvania State University-NCAR Mesoscale Model is presented. This new version employs reference pressure as the basis for a terrain-following vertical coordinate and the fully compressible ...
Coupling an Advanced Land Surface–Hydrology Model with the Penn State–NCAR MM5 Modeling System. Part II: Preliminary Model Validation
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: A number of short-term numerical experiments conducted by the Penn State?NCAR fifth-generation Mesoscale Model (MM5) coupled with an advanced land surface model, alongside the simulations coupled with a simple slab model, ...
Coupling an Advanced Land Surface–Hydrology Model with the Penn State–NCAR MM5 Modeling System. Part I: Model Implementation and Sensitivity
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: This paper addresses and documents a number of issues related to the implementation of an advanced land surface?hydrology model in the Penn State?NCAR fifth-generation Mesoscale Model (MM5). The concept adopted here is ...
Potential predictability during a Madden-Julian Oscillation event
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: he Madden-Julian Oscillation (MJO) is an important source of predictability. The boreal 2004-05 winter is used as a case study to conduct predictability experiments with the Weather Research and Forecasting (WRF) model. ...
A Three-Dimensional Numerical Study of an Oklahoma Squall Line Containing Right-Flank Supercells
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: A nonhydrostatic numerical mesoscale model has been applied to the study of an Oklahoma squall line with initial conditions taken from the Oklahoma?Kansas Preliminary Regional Experiment for STORM-Central (PRE-STORM) data ...
Improving the Representation of Resolved and Unresolved Topographic Effects on Surface Wind in the WRF Model
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: he Weather Research and Forecasting (WRF) model presents a high surface wind speed bias over plains and valleys that constitutes a limitation for the increasing use of the model for several applications. This study attempts ...
On the Ability of the WRF Model to Reproduce the Surface Wind Direction over Complex Terrain
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: he ability of the Weather Research and Forecasting (WRF) model to reproduce the surface wind direction over complex terrain is examined. A simulation spanning a winter season at a high horizontal resolution of 2 km is ...
Observing System Simulation Experiments and Objective Analysis Tests in Support of the Goals of the Atmospheric Radiation Measurement Program
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Time continuous data assimilation or four-dimensional data assimilation (FDDA) is a collection of techniques where observations are ingested into a numerical model during the simulation in order to produce a physically ...
