A Proposed Structure for Coupling Tiled Surfaces with the Planetary Boundary Layer
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: A generalized coupling is proposed between atmospheric models and surface schemes (land and ocean). A set of input and output variables is defined for this purpose in such a way that it can be used by many current and ...

Modeling Interannual Variations of Summer Monsoons
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Results from a set of 90-day integrations, made with a T42 version of the ECMWF model and forced with a variety of specified sea surface temperature (SST) datasets, are discussed. Most of the integrations started from data ...
The Usage of Screen-Level Parameters and Microwave Brightness Temperature for Soil Moisture Analysis
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: This study focuses on testing two different soil moisture analysis systems based on screen-level parameters (2-m temperature T2m, 2-m relative humidity RH2m) and 1.4-GHz passive microwave brightness temperatures TB. First, ...
Creation of the WATCH Forcing Data and Its Use to Assess Global and Regional Reference Crop Evaporation over Land during the Twentieth Century
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: he Water and Global Change (WATCH) project evaluation of the terrestrial water cycle involves using land surface models and general hydrological models to assess hydrologically important variables including evaporation, ...
Boreal Forest Surface Parameterization in the ECMWF Model—1D Test with NOPEX Long-Term Data
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The objective of the present study was to assess the performance and recent improvements of the land surface scheme used operationally in the European Centre for Medium-Range Weather Forecasts (ECMWF) in a Scandinavian ...
The Rhône-Aggregation Land Surface Scheme Intercomparison Project: An Overview
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The Rhône-Aggregation (Rhône-AGG) Land Surface Scheme (LSS) intercomparison project is an initiative within the Global Energy and Water Cycle Experiment (GEWEX)/Global Land?Atmosphere System Study (GLASS) panel of the World ...
