A Comparison of Continuous Soil Moisture Simulations Using Different Soil Hydraulic Parameterizations for a Site in Germany
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Continuous time series of soil water content over a period of more than 9 months for a midlatitude sandy loam soil covered by grass are calculated with the Campbell and the van Genuchten soil hydraulic functions and the ...
Sensitivity of Heavy Precipitation Forecasts to Small Modifications of Large-Scale Weather Patterns for the Elbe River
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Extreme flood events are caused by long-lasting and/or intensive precipitation. The detailed knowledge of the distribution, intensity, and spatiotemporal variability of precipitation is, therefore, a prerequisite for ...
Quantification of the Uncertainties in Soil and Vegetation Parameterizations for Regional Climate Simulations in Europe
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: he deterministic description of the subgrid-scale land?atmosphere interaction in regional climate model (RCM) simulations is changed by using stochastic soil and vegetation parameterizations. For this, the land?atmosphere ...
Comparison of Soil Hydraulic Parameterizations for Mesoscale Meteorological Models
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Soil water contents, calculated with seven soil hydraulic parameterizations, that is, soil hydraulic functions together with the corresponding parameter sets, are compared with observational data. The parameterizations ...
The Regional Atmospheric Water Budget over Southwestern Germany under Different Synoptic Conditions
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: his study addresses the question of how complex topography in a low-mountain region affects the partitioning and the variability of the atmospheric water budget components (WBCs) as a function of synoptic-scale flow ...
Determination of Precipitation Return Values in Complex Terrain and Their Evaluation
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: To determine return values at various return periods for extreme daily precipitation events over complex orography, an appropriate threshold value and distribution function are required. The return values are calculated ...
Diving into the Past: A Paleo Data–Model Comparison Workshop on the Late Glacial and Holocene
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Scientific and human errors in a snow model intercomparison
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The latest snow model intercomparison identified the same modelling issues as previous iterations over 23 years. Lack of new insights are attributed partly to human errors and intercomparison projects design.Twenty-seven ...
