Roger A Pielke Sr

Opis

The 3rd edition of Mesoscale Meteorological Modeling is a fully revised resource for researchers and practitioners in the growing field of meteorological modeling at the mesoscale. Pielke has enhanced the new edition by quantifying model capability (uncertainty) by a detailed evaluation of the assumptions of parameterization and error propagation. Mesoscale models are applied in a wide variety of studies, including weather prediction, regional and local climate assessments, and air pollution investigations.

• Broad expansion of the concepts of parameterization and parameterization methodology
• Addition of new modeling approaches, including modeling summaries and summaries of data sets
• All-new section on dynamic downscaling
