Abstract: A comparison of simple turbulence closures with a one-dimensional boundary layer model is presented in order to select one for a three-dimensional nonhydrostatic model applied to the transport-diffusion problem in complex ...

Abstract: A one-dimensional boundary layer model is used to simulate a fog event. This model describes the condensation process at subgrid-scale, the gravitational settling of fog droplets and their interactions with solar and thermal ...

Abstract: A one-dimensional (I-D) planetary boundary-layer model, including a complete set of simple physical parameterizations, has been used since July 1986 to predict daily soundings at Trappes in the suburbs of Paris. This model ...

Abstract: A simple method of dynamical adaptation of a mesoscale model has been tested to produce meteorological parameters locally adapted at meteorological stations. This method is based on the use of a soil model in association ...

Abstract: n many micrometeorological studies with computational fluid dynamics, building-resolving models usually assume a neutral atmosphere. Nevertheless, urban radiative transfers play an important role because of their influence ...

Abstract: he atmospheric radiation field has seen the development of more accurate and faster methods to take into account absorption. Modeling fog formation, where infrared radiation is involved, requires accurate methods to compute ...
