TWP-ICE/ACTIVE MONSOON CASE STUDY
Precipitation property measurements (white symbols) versus sample case study simulations (colored lines):
Comments:
- Disdrometer data are supplied by Christopher Williams and are here averaged over 1 minute. The Joss-Waldvogen disdrometer records data continuously over an area of 0.005 m2, and data are originally reported at 1-min resolution.
- All measurement data have been downloaded from the DOE ARM data archive (www.arm.gov) and use in publications is subject to the policies described there. Any errors in plotting or representation shown here should be blamed on Ann Fridlind.
- Model results are instantaneous values reported at 3-hr frequency and 1-km resolution over a domain of approximately 37,000 km2.
- The upper end of model ranges agree rather well with measurements generally, but the lower end of model ranges tend to be high compared with measurements. Possible issues with LWC measurements are under investigation.
