Multiscale Methods for Accurate, Efficient, and Scale-Aware Models
- Univ. of Wisconsin, Milwaukee, WI (United States); University of Wisconsin --- Milwaukee
The goal of UWM’s portion of the Multiscale project was to develop a unified cloud parameterization that could simulate all cloud types --- including stratocumulus, shallow cumulus, and deep cumulus --- using the single equation set implemented in CLUBB. An advantage of a unified parameterization methodology is that it avoids the difficult task of interfacing different cloud parameterizations for different cloud types. To interface CLUBB’s clouds to the microphysics, a Monte Carlo interface, SILHS, was further developed.
