Modeling of Stratocumulus Cloud Layers in a Large Eddy Simulation Model with Explicit Microphysics
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: A new large eddy simulation (LES) stratocumulus cloud model with an explicit formulation of micro-physical processes has been developed, and the results from three large eddy simulations are presented to illustrate the ...
A Mixed Scheme for Subgrid-Scale Fluxes in Cloud-Resolving Models
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: A large-domain large-eddy simulation of a tropical deep convection system is used as a benchmark to derive and test a mixed subgrid-scale (SGS) scheme for scalar and momentum fluxes in cloud-resolving models (CRMs). The ...
Application of MJO Simulation Diagnostics to Climate Models
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The ability of eight climate models to simulate the Madden?Julian oscillation (MJO) is examined using diagnostics developed by the U.S. Climate Variability and Predictability (CLIVAR) MJO Working Group. Although the MJO ...
Simulation of a Stratocumulus-Topped Planetary Boundary Layer: Intercomparison among Different Numerical Codes
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: This paper reports an intercomparison study of a stratocumulus-topped planetary boundary layer (PBL) generated from ten 3D large eddy simulation (LES) codes and four 2D cloud-resolving models (CRMs). These models vary in ...
