A New Vertical Diffusion Package with an Explicit Treatment of Entrainment Processes

TL;DR: In this article, a revised vertical diffusion algorithm with a nonlocal turbulent mixing coefficient in the planetary boundary layer (PBL) is proposed for weather forecasting and climate prediction models, which improves several features compared with the Hong and Pan implementation.

NOAA’s HYSPLIT Atmospheric Transport and Dispersion Modeling System

TL;DR: The Hybrid Single Particle Lagrangian Integrated Trajectory model (HYSPLIT) as mentioned in this paper is one of the most widely used models for atmospheric trajectory and dispersion calculations.

Numerical study of convection observed during the Winter Monsoon Experiment using a mesoscale two-dimensional model [presentation]

A Revised Approach to Ice Microphysical Processes for the Bulk Parameterization of Clouds and Precipitation

TL;DR: In this paper, a revised approach to cloud microphysical processes in a commonly used bulk microphysics parameterization and the importance of correctly representing properties of cloud ice are discussed, and the impact of sedimentation of ice crystals is also investigated.

Review of the Governing Equations, Computational Algorithms, and Other Components of the Models-3 Community Multiscale Air Quality (CMAQ) Modeling System

TL;DR: The Models-3 CMAQ system as mentioned in this paper is a community multiscale air quality modeling system that includes a meteorological modeling system for the description of atmospheric states and motions, emission models for man-made and natural emissions that are injected into the atmosphere, and a chemistry-transport modelling system for simulation of the chemical transformation and fate.

Interaction of a Cumulus Cloud Ensemble with the Large-Scale Environment, Part I

TL;DR: In this paper, large-scale modification of the environment by cumulus clouds is discussed in terms of entrainment, detraining, evaporation, and subsidence, and budget equations for mass, static energy, water vapor, and liquid water are considered.

Prognostic evaluation of assumptions used by cumulus parameterizations

TL;DR: Using a spectral-type cumulus parameterization that includes moist downdrafts within a three-dimensional mesoscale model, various disparate closure assumptions are systematically tested within the generalized framework of dynamic control, static control, and feedback as discussed by the authors.
