Journal ArticleDOI
Use of Four-Dimensional Data Assimilation in a Limited-Area Mesoscale Model. Part I: Experiments with Synoptic-Scale Data
TL;DR: In this paper, a four-dimensional data assimilation (FDDA) scheme based on Newtonian relaxation or "nudging" is tested using standard rawinsonde data in the Penn State/NCAR limited-area mesoscale model.
Journal ArticleDOI
Multiscale four-dimensional data assimilation
TL;DR: In this paper, a multiscale nudging approach that utilizes grid nesting is investigated for the generation of complete, dynamically consistent datasets for the mesobeta scale, which can also be used for other diagnostic purposes including model initialization.
Journal ArticleDOI
Meteorological modeling for air-quality assessments
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors present a state-of-the-art analysis of the current state of dynamical models used as meteorological pre-processors, showing that useful simulations for real cases are feasible for scales at least as fine as 1.
Journal ArticleDOI
A Comparison Study of Convective Parameterization Schemes in a Mesoscale Model
Wei Wang,Nelson L. Seaman +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, a comparison study of four cumulus parameterization schemes (CPSs), the Anthes-Kuo, Betts-Miller, Grell, and Kain-Fritsch schemes, is conducted using The Pennsylvania State University-National Center for Atmospheric Research mesoscale model.
Journal ArticleDOI
Use of Four-Dimensional Data Assimilation in a Limited-Area Mesoscale Model Part II: Effects of Data Assimilation within the Planetary Boundary Layer
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors further refine the previously reported FDDA strategy used to produce dynamic analyses of the atmosphere by investigating the effects of data assimilation within the planetary boundary layer (PBL).
