The Joint UK Land Environment Simulator (JULES), model description – Part 1: Energy and water fluxes
Martin Best,M. Pryor,Douglas B. Clark,G. G. Rooney,Richard Essery,Cécile B. Ménard,John M. Edwards,Margaret Hendry,Aurore Porson,Nicola Gedney,Lina M. Mercado,Stephen Sitch,Eleanor Blyth,Olivier Boucher,Olivier Boucher,Peter M. Cox,C. S. B. Grimmond,Richard Harding +17 more
TL;DR: The Joint UK Land Environment Simulator (JULES) as discussed by the authors is developed from the Met Office Surface Exchange Scheme (MOSES) and can be used as a stand alone land surface model driven by observed forcing data, or coupled to an atmospheric global circulation model.
Journal ArticleDOI

Pigeon,Aurore Porson,Aurore Porson,Young-Hee Ryu,Francisco Salamanca,Limor Shashua-Bar,Gert-Jan Steeneveld,Maria Tombrou,James A. Voogt,Duick T. Young,Ning Zhang +34 more
TL;DR: The aim of the comparison overall is to understand the complexity required to model energy and water exchanges in urban areas and to identify those modeling approaches that minimize the errors in the simulated fluxes of the urban energy balance.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: In this paper, the first results of Phase 2 from an international comparison project to evaluate 32 urban land surface schemes are presented, which is the first large-scale systematic evaluation of these models.
Journal ArticleDOI
Implementation of a new urban energy budget scheme in the MetUM. Part I: Description and idealized simulations
TL;DR: The formulation of a new urban scheme, MORUSES (Met Office–Reading Urban Surface Exchange Scheme) for use in the Met Office Unified Model, which represents the urban area as a composition of two tiles, a canyon and a roof, using a simple 2D geometry.
Journal ArticleDOI
Improved microphysical parametrization of drizzle and fog for operational forecasting using the Met Office Unified Model
TL;DR: In order to improve the forecasting of fog, visibility and drizzle within the Met Office Unified Model, three parametrizations are included in high-resolution, limited-area versions of the model as discussed by the authors.
