Abstract: Combined photovoltaic/thermal (PV/T) collectors show great potential for reaching the objective of net-zero energy consumption in buildings, but the number of products on the market is still very ...

Abstract: A sophisticated and flexible simulator of Doppler velocities measured by ground-based weather radars is appended to a high-resolution nonhydrostatic atmospheric model. Sensitivity experiments are conducted by using different ...

Abstract: This paper reports on simulations of an observed squall line with the meso-beta-scale hydrostatic PERIDOT model. An attempt is made to answer the question of what model changes are necessary to roughly simulate a squall ...

Abstract: A case of a nontornadic supercell over France is simulated with a three-dimensional nonhydrostatic cloud model. The simulation starts from an operational data analysis without any superimposed perturbation. The initial ...

Abstract: This study assesses the impact of uncertainty on convective-scale initial conditions (ICs) and the uncertainty on lateral boundary conditions (LBCs) in cloud-resolving simulations with the Application of Research to ...

Abstract: Modeling of the drying of porous materials is often approached by assuming that the gas pressure of the vapor-air mixture remains constantly equal to the outer atmospheric pressure. Use of both experimental and theoretical ...

Abstract: wo-dimensional water vapor fields were retrieved by simulated measurements from multiple ground-based microwave radiometers using a tomographic approach. The goal of this paper was to investigate how the various aspects ...

Abstract: Multicentury sensitivities in a realistic geometry global ocean general circulation model are analyzed using an adjoint technique. This paper takes advantage of the adjoint model?s ability to generate maps of the sensitivity ...

Abstract: Using the adjoint of a fully three-dimensional primitive equation ocean model in an idealized geometry, spatial variations in the sensitivity to surface boundary forcing of the meridional overturning circulation?s strength ...

Abstract: climatological approach is developed to characterize the mesoscale environment in which heavily precipitating events (HPEs) grow over a mountainous Mediterranean area. This climatology that is based on three-dimensional ...
