Numerical Modeling of Hailstorms and Hailstone Growth. Part I: Preliminary Model Verification and Sensitivity Tests
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: This paper is the first in a three part series describing numerical simulations of hailstorms and hailstone growth using a two-dimensional, time-dependent cloud model. In this model. cloud water, cloud ice and rain are ...
Severe Downslope Windstorm Calculations in Two and Three Spatial Dimensions Using Anelastic Interactive Grid Nesting: A Possible Mechanism for Gustiness
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The Clark nonhydrostatic anelastic code is extended to allow for interactive grid nesting in both two and three spatial dimensions. Tests are presented which investigate the accuracy of three different quadratic interpolation ...
A Detailed Microphysical Simulation of Hygroscopic Seeding on the Warm Rain Process
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The Wisner one-dimensional time-dependent model has been modified to allow the condensed water forms to be represented by 52 logarithmically spaced size categories covering a range of just under 2 ?m radius to slightly ...
Numerical Simulation of a 4-Day Early Spring Storm Period in the Black Hills
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: This paper illustrates the potential for mesoscale models to depict the distribution of precipitation in orographic situations. The study covers a 4-day time period in April 1995. The domain of the numerical model covers ...
Coupled Model Simulation of Snowfall Events over the Black Hills
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Numerical simulations of two snowfall events over the Black Hills of South Dakota are made to demonstrate the use and potential of a coupled atmospheric and land surface model. The Coupled Atmospheric?Hydrologic Model ...
