Evaluation of WRF-Predicted Near-Hub-Height Winds and Ramp Events over a Pacific Northwest Site with Complex Terrain
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: ne challenge with wind-power forecasts is the accurate prediction of rapid changes in wind speed (ramps). To evaluate the Weather Research and Forecasting (WRF) model's ability to predict such events, model simulations, ...
Evaluation of Single-Doppler Radar Wind Retrievals in Flat and Complex Terrain
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: he accuracy of winds derived from Next Generation Weather Radar (NEXRAD) level-II data is assessed by comparison with independent observations from 915-MHz radar wind profilers. The evaluation is carried out at two locations ...
Overview of the HI-SCALE Field Campaign: A New Perspective on Shallow Convective Clouds
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: AbstractShallow convective clouds are common, occurring over many areas of the world, and are an important component in the atmospheric radiation budget. In addition to synoptic and mesoscale meteorological conditions, ...
