RISEffects of Surface Property Variations on Simulated Daytime Airflow over Coastal Southern California
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: A series of simulations were performed to determine the sensitivity of a three-dimensional mesoscale model to the spatial variation of surface properties across coastal southern California, including the Los Angeles basin. ...
Numerical Investigation of Mesoscale Circulations over the Los Angeles Basin. Part II: Synoptic Influences and Pollutant Transport
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: This paper describes the influence of large-scale flows on mesoscale circulations and pollutant transport in the Los Angels Basin. National Meteorological Center (NMC) gridded data for twenty-six basin smog episodes were ...
Numerical Investigation of Mesoscale Circulations over the Los Angeles Basin. Part I. A Verification Study
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: This paper describes some improvements to the Colorado State University mesoscale model and the evaluation of the model's accuracy in simulating airflows in the Los Angeles Basin. Model output was compared with observations ...
Mesoscale Variability of Boundary Layer Properties in the Los Angeles Basin
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: We employ daytime radiosonde data to analyze boundary layer (BL) variability within the Los Angeles Basin for a case study day. The predominantly mesoscale forcing in the region produces large spatial and temporal variations ...
