Sensitivity of Low-Level Winds Simulated by the WRF Model in California’s Central Valley to Uncertainties in the Large-Scale Forcing and Soil Initialization
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The sensitivity of the Weather and Research Forecasting (WRF) model-simulated low-level winds in the Central Valley (CV) of California to uncertainties in the atmospheric forcing and soil initialization is investigated ...
Assimilation of NEXRAD-VAD Winds in Summertime Meteorological Simulations over the Northeastern United States
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Next-Generation Radar (NEXRAD) velocity azimuth display (VAD) winds were available at 10 sites in the northeastern United States during intensive observing periods of the North American Research Strategy on Tropospheric ...
Mesoscale Meteorological Structure of a High-Ozone Episode during the 1995 NARSTO-Northeast Study
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Observations and numerical model fields were analyzed to study the meteorological structures contributing to high concentrations of lower-tropospheric ozone over the northeastern United States on 14?15 July 1995. It was ...
Evaluation of the Summertime Low-Level Winds Simulated by MM5 in the Central Valley of California
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: A season-long set of 5-day simulations between 1200 UTC 1 June and 1200 UTC 30 September 2000 are evaluated using the observations taken during the Central California Ozone Study (CCOS) 2000 experiment. The simulations are ...
On the Importance of a Consistent Treatment of Prognostic Moisture Variables between Convective and Microphysical Parameterizations
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: AbstractAnalysis of WRF Model output from experiments using two double-moment microphysics schemes is carried out to demonstrate that there can be an inconsistency between the predicted mass and number concentrations when ...
The Sensitivity of Hurricane Irene to Aerosols and Ocean Coupling: Simulations with WRF Spectral Bin Microphysics
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: urricane Irene (2011) moved northward along the eastern coast of the United States and was expected to cause severe wind and flood damage. However, the hurricane weakened much faster than was predicted. Moreover, the minimum ...
