Abstract: A formulation to include prognostic atmospheric layers in offline surface schemes is derived from atmospheric equations. Whereas multilayer schemes developed previously need a complex coupling between atmospheric-model ...

Abstract: Three-dimensional simulations of the IOP 10 of the Pyrénées Experiment are presented. In this case, the northerly synoptic flow forces two regional winds around the Pyrénées Mountain range: the cierzo in the Ebro Valley ...

Abstract: The mechanisms of northern summer monsoon changes at 6 kyr BP and their dependency to model parameterizations is investigated using two versions of the atmospheric general circulation model developed by the Laboratoire de ...

Abstract: The urban-breeze circulation is a mesoscale response of the atmospheric flow that is related to horizontal variations in temperature associated, for dry conditions, with gradients in sensible heat flux densities. This local ...

Abstract: urbulence is well represented by atmospheric models at very fine grid sizes, from 10 to 100 m, for which turbulent movements are mainly resolved, and by atmospheric models with grid sizes greater than 2 km, for which those ...

Abstract: rban canopy models (UCMs) are being used as urban-climate prediction tools for different applications including outdoor thermal comfort and building energy consumption. To take advantage of their low computational cost, ...

Abstract: The newly developed nonhydrostatic model MESO-NH, in which the surface scheme Interactions Soil?Biosphere?Atmosphere has been incorporated, is used in this study to assess the impact of increasing the horizontal resolution ...

Abstract: s the nonhydrostatic regional model of the Consortium for Small-Scale Modelling in Climate Mode (COSMO-CLM) is increasingly employed for studying the effects of urbanization on the environment, the authors extend its ...

Abstract: Recent large-eddy simulation (LES) studies of the impact of aerosol on the dynamics of nocturnal marine stratocumulus revealed that, depending on the large-scale forcings, an aerosol-induced increase of the droplet ...

Abstract: This study combines the experimental measurements with large-eddy simulation (LES) data of a neutral planetary boundary layer (PBL) documented by a 60-m tower instrumented with eight sonic anemometers, and a high-resolution ...
