A theory for the retrieval of virtual temperature from winds, radiances and the equations of fluid dynamics [PDF]

, 1986
A technique to deduce the virtual temperature from the combined use of the equations of fluid dynamics, observed wind and observed radiances is described.

Implementation of an Urban Canopy Parameterization in a Mesoscale Meteorological Model

Journal of Applied Meteorology, 2004
Abstract An urban canopy parameterization (UCP) is implemented into the fifth-generation Pennsylvania State University–National Center for Atmospheric Research Mesoscale Model (MM5) to improve meteorological fields in the urban boundary layer for finescale (∼1-km horizontal grid spacing) simulations.

NowPrecip 2: Precipitation nowcasting in the complex terrain of Switzerland. Part II: Verification

Quarterly Journal of the Royal Meteorological Society, EarlyView.
In this work we present the verification of the NowPrecip precipitation nowcasting systems (version 1 and version 2). Using 3.5 years of data over the period 2020–2023, their performance is compared with PySTEPS and the ICON numerical weather prediction ensemble by computing deterministic and probabilistic metrics.

A multimodel intercomparison study of variable‐resolution global models with grid refinement over the Arctic and Antarctic

Quarterly Journal of the Royal Meteorological Society, EarlyView.
We document the protocol and first results from the first ever coordinated multimodel variable‐resolution experiment set with refinement over the polar regions. We find that the refinement generally yields model‐dependent effects. The most consistent improvement is an amelioration of the upper‐level cold bias in the polar regions that translates into ...

Characterization of synoptic environment for mesoscale convective systems over South Korea using ERA5 reanalysis data

Quarterly Journal of the Royal Meteorological Society, EarlyView.
In this study, the synoptic conditions for modes of mesoscale convective systems (MCSs) in South Korea are generalized based on composite analysis. The preferred precipitation region, synoptic patterns, moisture transport, sea surface temperature and thermodynamic and dynamic instabilities are characterized according to four modes: convective cells (CC)

Exploiting Aeolus winds in a regional numerical weather prediction model

Quarterly Journal of the Royal Meteorological Society, EarlyView.
Aeolus measured winds have proven to be beneficial for global models. However, demonstrating positive impact for limited‐area models has been a challenge so far. For the first time, we have demonstrated a statistically significant positive impact of Aeolus winds in a limited‐area model by using the 4DVar data assimilation technique and the most recent ...

Evaluating anisotropy‐based Monin–Obukhov similarity theory over canopies and complex terrain

Quarterly Journal of the Royal Meteorological Society, EarlyView.
This study shows that an anisotropy‐based generalization of Monin–Obukhov surface‐layer scaling (SC23) applies readily across a wide range of atmospheric conditions with variable terrain, canopies, and land‐cover complexity. This work focuses on the scaling of velocity variances for 7 years at the 47 sites in the National Ecological Observation Network

A mathematical-physical formulation of a mesoscale limited area model in meteorology

Atti della Accademia Peloritana dei Pericolanti : Classe di Scienze Fisiche, Matematiche e Naturali
In this paper we give a detailed mathematical-physical derivation of a limited area meteorological model, used in several applications, describing the motions and the behaviour of the atmosphere, in the troposphere layer, at mesoscale range, modeled as a

The benefits of a hybrid‐3DEnVar data assimilation scheme for the convection‐permitting NWP model AROME–Austria

Quarterly Journal of the Royal Meteorological Society, EarlyView.
The climatological‐error covariance matrix used in three‐dimensional variational data assimilation (3DVar) provides smooth and isotropic increments spread to long distances. In contrast, three‐dimensional ensemble variational data assimilation (3DEnVar) with a purely ensemble‐error covariance matrix provides inhomogeneous increments and contains the ...
