RISSimilarity of Microclimate as Simulated in Response to Landscapes of the 1930s and the 1980s
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: In the time between the 1930s and the 1980s land use was modified by deforestation, urbanization, afforestation and recultivation of open-pit mines, further installation of open-pit mines, and drainage in about 46% of a ...
Plant- and Soil-Parameter-Caused Uncertainty of Predicted Surface Fluxes
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Simulated surface fluxes depend on one or more empirical plant or soil parameters that have a standard deviation (std dev). Thus, simulated fluxes will have a stochastic error (or std dev) resulting from the parameters? ...
Suitability of the Weather Research and Forecasting (WRF) Model to Predict the June 2005 Fire Weather for Interior Alaska
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Standard indices used in the National Fire Danger Rating System (NFDRS) and Fosberg fire-weather indices are calculated from Weather Research and Forecasting (WRF) model simulations and observations in interior Alaska for ...
Evaluation of Snow Depth and Soil Temperatures Predicted by the Hydro–Thermodynamic Soil–Vegetation Scheme Coupled with the Fifth-Generation Pennsylvania State University–NCAR Mesoscale Model
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The Hydro?Thermodynamic Soil?Vegetation Scheme (HTSVS) coupled in a two-way mode with the fifth-generation Pennsylvania State University?National Center for Atmospheric Research (NCAR) Mesoscale Meteorological Model (MM5) ...
Evaluation of the Soil Model of the Hydro–Thermodynamic Soil–Vegetation Scheme by Observations and a Theoretically Advanced Numerical Scheme
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The soil module of the Hydro?Thermodynamic Soil?Vegetation Scheme is evaluated by soil temperature observations and independent theoretical numerical results. To gain the latter, a Galerkin weak finite-element (GWFE) scheme ...
Numerical Investigations on the Influence of Subgrid-Scale Surface Heterogeneity on Evapotranspiration and Cloud Processes
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Numerical experiments were performed with a meso-?-scale meteorological model to investigate the influence of subgrid-scale surface heterogeneity on the prediction of evapotranspiration, cloud, and precipitation formation. ...
Theoretical Assessment of Uncertainty in Regional Averages due to Network Density and Design
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Weather Research and Forecasting (WRF) model simulations are performed over Russia for July and December 2005, 2006, and 2007 to create a ?dataset? to assess the impact of network density and design on regional averages. ...
Impact of Urban Effects on Precipitation in High Latitudes
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: This numerical study examines the impact of urban growth and release of aerosols, moisture, and heat on precipitation for Fairbanks, Alaska, a remote city at high latitude. The remote location allows atmospheric changes ...
Application of Gaussian Error Propagation Principles for Theoretical Assessment of Model Uncertainty in Simulated Soil Processes Caused by Thermal and Hydraulic Parameters
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Statistical uncertainty in soil temperature and volumetric water content and related moisture and heat fluxes predicted by a state-of-the-art soil module [embedded in a numerical weather prediction (NWP) model] is analyzed ...
