Mesoscale meteorology

Reviews of Geophysics, 1983
The last four years have seen a considerable expansion in research on mesoscale atmospheric phenomena. The motivation is three‐fold: the prospect of greater forecast accuracy, an emerging ability to observe the mesoscale, and the challenge of understanding extremely complex physical mechanisms.

Impact of forests on mesoscale meteorology

Philosophical Transactions of the Royal Society of London. B, Biological Sciences, 1989
The effect of forests on local meteorological circulations is discussed with particular regard to the consequence of their lower albedo, enhanced roughness and larger minimal stomatal resistance when compared with agricultural crops. The effect of these is determined by numerical simulation using two different mesoscale atmospheric models.

MESOSCALE METEOROLOGY | Mesoscale Convective Systems

2003
Mesoscale convective systems are organized, multicellular thunderstorm systems that have a strong impact on heavy rainfall, severe weather, and vertical transport in the atmosphere. The significant types in terms of those impacts range from bow echoes at smaller scales, which cause damaging surface winds, to mesoscale convective complexes with ...

The U.K. Meteorological Office mesoscale model

Boundary-Layer Meteorology, 1987
A mesoscale numerical weather prediction model has been developed at the U.K. Meteorological Office and is being tested as an operational short period forecasting tool. It has been constructed with a high degree of flexibility so that it can easily be used in other applications such as pollution dispersal modelling.
