Abstract: The present research proposes a standard nomenclature for mesoscale meteorological concepts and integrates existing concepts of atmospheric space scales, flow assumptions, governing equations, and resulting motions into a ...

Abstract: This paper describes the formulation and the application of the nonhydrostatic anelastic vorticity model (TVM). This model is constructed using a method involving two horizontal streamfunctions and two horizontal vorticity ...

Abstract: A running-mean operator is used to average predefined signals in order to calculate subgrid-scale (SGS) contributions. The role of the Leonard and cross terms (l and C, respectively) in the definition of the SGS is studied ...

Abstract: The theoretical analysis presented recently on the role of Leonard and cross terms in determining the subfilter contribution when using a running mean is verified using atmospheric measurements. Measurements of variables ...

Abstract: The three-dimensional, flat-terrain, finite-difference URBMET vorticity, mode mesoscale-? model has been modified to include topographic effects. The resulting topographic vorticity-mode mesoscale-? (TVM) model is hydrostatic, ...

Abstract: The new topographic vorticity-mode mesoscale-? (TVM) model, whose formulation is described in Part I of this paper, was used to simulate data from the June 1983 Sixth European Remote Sensing Campaign on Air Pollution at ...
