  3. 3. Test of the Rossby Centre Regional Atmospheric Climate Model’s Land Surface Scheme

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Fysiska institutionen

    Author : Karolina Nilsson; [2006]
    Keywords : Latent och sensibelt värme i kimatmodeller; Rossby Center; SMHI; Regional atmosfärisk klimatmodell; Global energibalans; Latent and sensible heat; Global energy balance; Regional climate model; Rossby Centre; Physics and Astronomy;

    Abstract : There is an economic interest in the development of reliable climate models that can give us a good estimation of the present and future climate. Farmers, electricity- and insurance- companies are some of the clients that need long term (monthly) weather information from the Swedish Meteorological and Hydrological Institute (SMHI). READ MORE

  4. 4. The accuracy of the wind stress over ocean of the Rossby Centre Atmospheric model (RCA)

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Luft-, vatten- och landskapslära

    Author : Alexandra Ohlsson; [2006]
    Keywords : wind stress; RCA; Östergarnsholm site; model evaluation;

    Abstract : The aim of this study is to investigate how well the wind stress is described in the regional climate model RCA (Rossby Centre Atmospheric model). The model data is compared with measurements taken at Östergarnsholm, an island located east of Gotland in the Baltic Sea. The investigation covers the period October 1997 to September 2000.

  5. 5. Estimation of gusty winds in RCA

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Luft-, vatten- och landskapslära

    Author : Maria Nordström; [2005]
    Keywords : wind gust estimation; RCA; model evaluation;

    Abstract : In this study a new wind gust estimate (WGE) method proposed by Brasseur (2001) is implemented in a limited area climate model (RCA, Rossby Centre regional Atmospheric model). The WGE method assumes that wind gusts develop when air parcels higher up in the boundary layer deflect down to the surface by turbulent eddies. READ MORE
