Sensitivity of mesoscale model urban boundary layer meteorology to the scale of urban representation [PDF]
Mesoscale modeling of the urban boundary layer requires careful parameterization of the surface due to its heterogeneous morphology. Model estimated meteorological quantities, including the surface energy budget and canopy layer variables, will respond ...

Simulation of surface meteorology at the Pathfinder and VL1 sites using a Mars mesoscale model [PDF]
[1] The Fifth-Generation Penn State/NCAR Mesoscale Model (MM5) has been adapted to study circulations in the Martian atmosphere. The NASA Ames Mars general circulation model (GCM) provides initial and boundary conditions. The meteorology of this Mars MM5

Intercomparison of mesoscale meteorological models for precipitation forecasting [PDF]
Abstract. In the framework of the RAPHAEL EU project, a series of past heavy precipitation events has been simulated with different meteorological models. Rainfall hindcasts and forecasts have been produced by four models in use at various meteorological services or research centres of Italy, Canada, France and Switzerland.

Comparison of Soil Hydraulic Parameterizations for Mesoscale Meteorological Models
AbstractSoil water contents, calculated with seven soil hydraulic parameterizations, that is, soil hydraulic functions together with the corresponding parameter sets, are compared with observational data. The parameterizations include the Campbell/Clapp–Hornberger parameterization that is often used by meteorologists and the van Genuchten/Rawls ...

Mesoscale Verification Using Meteorological Composites
Abstract Mesoscale models are often used to explicitly predict discrete, highly structured phenomena. Information regarding the ability of the model to predict events as coherent entities is thus a useful statement of performance. Observational constraints are a significant problem, though, as the shape, size, and intensity of any given event are often

A Quantitative Study of Satellite Winds for Mesoscale Meteorology
Abstract Quantitative characteristics and utility of mesoscale satellite winds are investigated for a low-level high spatial resolution data set obtained from a sequence of 6 min interval synchronous meteorological satellite images of the central region of the United States on 20 May 1977.

Quality Assurance Procedures for Mesoscale Meteorological Data
Abstract Mesoscale meteorological data present their own challenges and advantages during the quality assurance (QA) process because of their variability in both space and time. To ensure data quality, it is important to perform quality control at many different stages (e.g., sensor calibrations, automated tests, and manual assessment ...

Data assimilation for the Model for Prediction Across Scales – Atmosphere with the Joint Effort for Data assimilation Integration (JEDI-MPAS 2.0.0-beta): ensemble of 3D ensemble-variational (En-3DEnVar) assimilations [PDF]
An ensemble of 3D ensemble-variational (En-3DEnVar) data assimilations is demonstrated with the Joint Effort for Data assimilation Integration (JEDI) with the Model for Prediction Across Scales – Atmosphere (MPAS-A) (i.e., JEDI-MPAS).
