Influence of Soil Moisture on Urban Microclimate and Surface-Layer Meteorology in Oklahoma City
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: he influence of soil moisture on the surface-layer atmosphere is examined in this paper by analyzing the outputs of model simulations for different initial soil moisture configurations, with particular emphasis on urban ...
Microscale Numerical Prediction over Montreal with the Canadian External Urban Modeling System
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: he Canadian urban and land surface external modeling system (known as urban GEM-SURF) has been developed to provide surface and near-surface meteorological variables to improve numerical weather prediction and to become a ...
Subkilometer Numerical Weather Prediction in an Urban Coastal Area: A Case Study over the Vancouver Metropolitan Area
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: umerical weather prediction is moving toward the representation of finescale processes such as the interactions between the sea-breeze flow and urban processes. This study investigates the ability and necessity of using ...
Influence of open water bodies on the modelling of summertime convection over the Canadian Prairies
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: here are numerous water features on the Canadian landscapes that are not monitored. Specifically, there are water bodies over the prairies and Canadian shield regions of North America that are ephemeral in nature and could ...
Modeling the Surface Energy Budget during the Thawing Period of the 2006 Montreal Urban Snow Experiment
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The Montreal Urban Snow Experiment was dedicated to furthering the understanding of micrometeorological processes involved in the late winter?early spring transition period in a Canadian city. A surface energy budget (SEB) ...
Evaluation of Modeled Lake Breezes Using an Enhanced Observational Network in Southern Ontario: Case Studies
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: AbstractCanadian Global Environmental Multiscale (GEM) numerical model output was compared with the meteorological data from an enhanced observational network to investigate the model?s ability to predict Lake Ontario lake ...
