Abstract: In using σ as the vertical coordinate there is a need for interpolation of analyzed observations from p- to σ-surfaces in the process of establishing initial fields for a forecast. By employing an equation that establishes ...

Abstract: An initialization scheme for numerical models containing treatment of cloudiness is presented. The dynamic type of initialization scheme is based on the digital filtering technique, which requires integration of the model ...

Abstract: This paper presents the implementation of a parameterization scheme for convective and stratiform condensation (with cloud water as a prognostic variable) into a fine mesh numerical weather prediction model. The results ...
