• Downscaling of seasonal ensemble forecasts to the convection-permitting scale over the Horn of Africa using the WRF model 

      Mori, PaoloORCIDiD; Schwitalla, ThomasORCIDiD; Ware, Markos BudusaORCIDiD; Warrach-Sagi, KirstenORCIDiD; Wulfmeyer, VolkerORCIDiD (International Journal of Climatology, 2020)
      The new SEAS5 global ensemble forecast system was dynamically downscaled over the Horn of Africa for summer (June-July-August) 2018. For this purpose, a multi-physics ensemble was designed with a grid increment of 3 km and ...
    • Land Cover Impacts on Land-Atmosphere Coupling Strength in Climate Simulations With WRF Over Europe 

      Jach, LisaORCIDiD; Warrach-Sagi, KirstenORCIDiD; Ingwersen, Joachim; Kaas, EigilORCIDiD; Wulfmeyer, VolkerORCIDiD (Journal of Geophysical Research: Atmospheres, 2020)
      Land use and land cover changes are important human forcings to the Earth's climate. This study examines the land-atmosphere coupling strength and the relationship between surface fluxes and clouds and precipitation for ...

      The European CORDEX (EURO-CORDEX) initiative is a large voluntary effort that seeks to advance regional climate and Earth system science in Europe. As part of the World Climate Research Programme (WCRP) - Coordinated ...
    • Sensitivity study of the planetary boundary layer and microphysical schemes to the initialization of convection over the Arabian Peninsula 

      Schwitalla, ThomasORCIDiD; Branch, Oliver; Wulfmeyer, VolkerORCIDiD (Quarterly Journal of the Royal Meteorological Society, 2019)
      In this study, we present a five-member Weather Research and Forecasting (WRF) physics ensemble over the Arabian Peninsula on the convection-permitting (CP) scale and investigate the ability to simulate convection and ...
