Evaluation of a sub-kilometre NWP system in an Arctic fjord-valley system in winter
Tellus: Series A, Dynamic Meteorology and Oceanography, 2020 Terrain challenges the prediction of near-surface atmospheric conditions, even in kilometre-scale numerical weather prediction (NWP) models. In this study, the ALADIN-HIRLAM NWP system with 0.5 km horizontal grid spacing and an increased number of ...

Implementation of a simple thermodynamic sea ice scheme, SICE version 1.0-38h1, within the ALADIN–HIRLAM numerical weather prediction system version 38h1 [PDF]
Geoscientific Model Development, 2018 Sea ice is an important factor affecting weather regimes, especially in polar regions. A lack of its representation in numerical weather prediction (NWP) systems leads to large errors.

Analysis of raindrop size distribution from the double moment cloud microphysics scheme for monsoon over a tropical station [PDF]
Atmospheric Chemistry and PhysicsAccurate precipitation forecasting hinges on the representation of microphysical processes within numerical models. A key approach to understanding these processes is through the analysis of hydrometeor drop size distribution (DSD).

Estudios Irlandeses, 2016 It starts in October, the merciless grey morass that gets worse in November and sucks you down into a boghole of misery. It's deep, and oozing, nearly as deep as the silence of a middle aged man in a McGahern novel. Rain. Imagine what all that dreck and drear does to the psyche. It's like the inside of The Poor Mouth and The Hard Life in there.

On the warm bias in atmospheric reanalyses induced by the missing snow over Arctic sea-ice
Nature Communications, 2019 Contemporary atmospheric reanalysis and forecast systems often neglect the snow layer on top of the sea ice. This can result in a 5 to 10 °C warm bias of the sea-ice surface temperature and thus, in a misrepresentation of the surface energy budget.

Validation metrics for ice edge position forecasts [PDF]
Ocean Science, 2019 The ice edge is a simple quantity in the form of a line that can be derived from a spatially varying sea ice concentration field. Due to its long history and relevance for operations in the Arctic, the position of the ice edge should be an essential ...
