RISQuantification of the Lateral Boundary Forcing of a Regional Climate Model Using an Aging Tracer
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The present work introduces a new and useful tool to quantify the lateral boundary forcing of a regional climate model (RCM). This tool, an aging tracer, computes the time the air parcels spend inside the limited-area ...
Reconstruction of the Spring 2011 Richelieu River Flood by Two Regional Climate Models and a Hydrological Model
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: limate simulations made with two regional climate models (RCMs), the French Aire Limitée Adaptation Dynamique Développement International (ALADIN) and the Canadian Regional Climate Model, version 5 (CRCM5), operating on ...
The Use of Reanalyses and Gridded Observations as Weather Input Data for a Hydrological Model: Comparison of Performances of Simulated River Flows Based on the Density of Weather Stations
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: recipitation forcing is critical for hydrological modeling as it has a strong impact on the accuracy of simulated river flows. In general, precipitation data used in hydrological modeling are provided by weather stations. ...
Dynamical Downscaling with Reinitializations: A Method to Generate Finescale Climate Datasets Suitable for Impact Studies
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: o retain the sequence of events of a regional climate model (RCM) simulation driven by a reanalysis, a method that has not been widely adopted uses an RCM with frequent reinitializations toward its driving field. In this ...
Using Natural Variability as a Baseline to Evaluate the Performance of Bias Correction Methods in Hydrological Climate Change Impact Studies
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: ostprocessing of climate model outputs is usually performed to remove biases prior to performing climate change impact studies. The evaluation of the performance of bias correction methods is routinely done by comparing ...
Use of Four Reanalysis Datasets to Assess the Terrestrial Branch of the Water Cycle over Quebec, Canada
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: eanalyses have the potential to provide meteorological information in areas where few or no traditional observation records are available. The terrestrial branch of the water cycle of CFSR, MERRA, ERA-Interim, and NARR is ...
Can Precipitation and Temperature from Meteorological Reanalyses Be Used for Hydrological Modeling?
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: his paper investigates the potential of reanalyses as proxies of observed surface precipitation and temperature to force hydrological models. Three global atmospheric reanalyses (ERA-Interim, CFSR, and MERRA), one regional ...
Can Regional Climate Models Represent the Indian Monsoon?
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: he ability of four regional climate models (RCMs) to represent the Indian monsoon was verified in a consistent framework for the period 1981?2000 using the 45-yr European Centre for Medium-Range Weather Forecasts (ECMWF) ...
