Evaluation of the atmospheric transport in a GCM using radon measurements: sensitivity to cumulus convection parameterization
The radioactive species radon (222Rn) has long been used as a test tracer for the numerical simulation of large scale transport processes. In this study, radon transport experiments are carried out using an atmospheric GCM with a finite-difference dynamical core, the van Leer type FFSL advection algorithm, and two state-of-the-art cumulus convection parameterization schemes. Measurements of sur...
متن کاملTesting a Cumulus Parameterization With a Cumulus Ensemble Model in Weak Temperature Gradient Mode
This paper prototypes a method for calibrating a cumulus parameterization against a cumulus ensemble model. The key to this technique is to run the cumulus model and the parameterization in identical test cells which provide forcing typical of that seen over tropical oceans. In particular, the mean temperature pro le is relaxed to a reference pro le which is assumed to be characteristic of the ...
متن کاملAdaptive simulations of trade cumulus convection
Many problems in meteorology are being studied with the use of mesh reenement to focus computational eeort on particular regions within the domain. This paper presents a form of adaptive mesh reenement based on hierarchical reenement in space and time for studying atmospheric con-vection and other geophysical ows where the phenomena of interest occupy a small but spatially distributed fraction ...

Our objectives are a) To describe the detailed structure of the air flow in a mature hurricane, b) To understand the vertical force balance in the eye and the eyewall, c) To investigate the presence of supergradient flow in hurricanes and the underlying processes, d) To study the surface wind structures during landfall, e) To investigate the transformation of a cold-core continental mesovortex ...
متن کاملThe Environment of Precipitating Shallow Cumulus Convection
Quantitative estimates of precipitation in a typical undisturbed trade wind region are derived from 2 months of radar reflectivity data and compared to the meteorological environment determined from soundings, surface flux, and airborne-lidar data. Shallow precipitation was ubiquitous, covering on average about 2% of the region and contributing to at least half of the total precipitation. Echo ...
