Abstract: A stochastic parameterization scheme for deep convection is described, suitable for use in both climate and NWP models. Theoretical arguments and the results of cloud-resolving models are discussed in order to motivate the ...

Abstract: A dry three-dimensional baroclinic life cycle model is used to investigate the role of turbulent fluxes of heat and momentum within the boundary layer on midlatitude cyclones. Simulations are performed of life cycles for ...

Abstract: umerical simulations are performed to assess the influence of the large-scale circulation on the transition from suppressed to active convection. As a model tool, the authors used a coupled-column model. It consists of two ...

Abstract: cloud-resolving model is modified to implement the weak temperature gradient approximation in order to simulate the interactions between tropical convection and the large-scale tropical circulation. The instantaneous ...

Abstract: Strong vertical gradients at the top of the atmospheric boundary layer affect the propagation of electromagnetic waves and can produce radar ducts. A three-dimensional, time-dependent, nonhydrostatic numerical model was ...

Abstract: AbstractA scale-dependent Lagrangian-averaged dynamic Smagorinsky subgrid scheme with stratification effects is used to simulate the evolving convective boundary layer of the Wangara (Australia) case study in the gray-zone ...

Abstract: he Diabatic Influences on Mesoscale Structures in Extratropical Storms (DIAMET) project aims to improve forecasts of high-impact weather in extratropical cyclones through field measurements, high-resolution numerical ...
