MM5 studies at Wageningen University (NL) Title Jordi Vilà (Group 4) NL North sea Radar MM5 NL North sea

MM5 research based on 4 components: Validation with detailed observations physical processes Improving physical representations Specific research studies to understand mesoscale phenomena BSc/MSc Education

Validation physical processes Land-surface schemes Planetary boundary layer schemes Deep Convection Microphysics Method: Intensive use of observations Sensitivity analysis

Energy budget R n = H + L v E + G H RnRn LvELvE G Partition of the sensible heat flux (H) and latent heat flux (E) depends on the soil moisture availability

Energy budget + Observations - MM5 results

Improving physical representations Surface and boundary layer processes Interaction land-atmosphere Entrainment

Are we able to improve the Nocturnal BL representation in mesoscale models? (Gert-Jan Steenveld et al., WUR) Implementation of a vegetation layer to improve representation of the surface radiative cooling Limit the turbulent mixing in stable stratifications (local scaling)

Temporal evolution of the surface temperature + CASES99 Observations Continuous Standard scheme Dotted Vegetation layer Dashed Veg. layer + local mixing IntermittentTurbulentRadiative Best agreement with observations after introducing vegetation lager and local turbulent mixing=> Potential impact on LLJ formation

+ CASES99 Observations Cont. Standard scheme Dot. Vegetation layer Das. Veg.layer + local mixing Temporal evolution of the vertical profiles potential temperature Turbulent mixing decreases Radiative cooling is more effective

Research studies: Mesoscale phenomena strongly coupled with surface and boundary layer Method: Case studies (costal fronts, cloud formation and development,...)

Development of costal fronts (September-November) (Malda et al., 2007) Frictional convergenceThermal convection Backing up of the winds due to higher roughness length Convection trigger by sea/land thermal differences (accentuated at night)
