Recent increases in computing power mean that atmospheric models for numerical weather
prediction are now able to operate at grid spacings of the order of a few hundred meters …

This review paper explores the field of mesoscale to microscale modeling over complex
terrain as it traverses multiple so-called gray zones. In an attempt to bridge the gap between …

The Mellor–Yamada–Nakanishi–Niino (MYNN)(Nakanishi and Niino 2001, 2004, 2006, and
2009) scheme was first integrated into the Advanced Research version of the Weather …

Generating accurate weather forecasts of planetary boundary layer (PBL) properties is
challenging in many geographical regions, oftentimes due to complex topography or …

A new three-dimensional (3D) turbulent kinetic energy (TKE) subgrid mixing scheme is
developed using the Advanced Research version of the Weather Research and Forecasting …

Simulation of Flow Fields in Complex Terrain with WRF-LES: Sensitivity Assessment of Different
PBL Treatments in: Journal of Applied Meteorology and Climatology Volume 59 Issue 9 (2020) …

Evaluation of the Impact of Horizontal Grid Spacing in Terra Incognita on Coupled
Mesoscale–Microscale Simulations Using the WRF Framework in: Monthly Weather Review …

As model grid resolutions move from the mesoscale to the microscale, turbulent structures
represented in atmospheric boundary layer simulations change dramatically. At intermediate …

On the Factors Controlling the Development of Shallow Convection in Eddy-Diffusivity/Mass-Flux

Here, we present the first attempt to fully represent three‐dimensional turbulence fluxes in
the “Terra Incognita” or the gray zone in other words. In order to derive partitioning functions …
