Evaluation of a cloudy cold-air pool in the Columbia River basin in different versions of the High-Resolution Rapid Refresh (HRRR) model [PDF]
Geoscientific Model Development, 2023 The accurate forecast of persistent orographic cold-air pools in numerical weather prediction models is essential for the optimal integration of wind energy into the electrical grid during these events.

Simulations of a cold-air pool associated with elevated wintertime ozone in the Uintah Basin, Utah [PDF]
Atmospheric Chemistry and Physics, 2015 Numerical simulations are used to investigate the meteorological characteristics of the 31 January–6 February 2013 cold-air pool in the Uintah Basin, Utah, and the resulting high ozone concentrations.

Assessment of valley cold pools and clouds in a very high-resolution numerical weather prediction model [PDF]
Geoscientific Model Development, 2015 The formation of cold air pools in valleys under stable conditions represents an important challenge for numerical weather prediction (NWP). The challenge is increased when the valleys that dominate cold pool formation are on scales unresolved by NWP ...

RANS Simulation of Local Strong Sandstorms Induced by a Cold Pool with Vorticity
Atmosphere, 2020 Local strong sandstorms (LSSs) in northwestern China often occur suddenly in tens of minutes during the late afternoon and by dusk. Observations and theoretical studies have shown the trigger role of cold-air pools over desert areas for the occurrence of

Mechanical Forcing of Convection by Cold Pools: Collisions and Energy Scaling
Journal of Advances in Modeling Earth Systems, 2020 Forced mechanical lifting through cold pool gust fronts can trigger new convection and, as previous work highlights, is enhanced when cold pools collide. However, as shown by conceptual models, the organization of the convective cloud field emerging from
