Description
To effectively utilize mesoscale dynamical simulations of the atmosphere, it is necessary to have an understanding the basic physical
and mathematical foundations of the models and to have an appreciation of how a particular atmospheric system works. Mesoscale
Meteorological Modeling provides such an overview of mesoscale numerical modeling. Starting with fundamental concepts, this
text can be used to evaluate the scientific basis of any simulation model that has been or will be developed. Basic material is provided
for the beginner as well as more in-depth treatment for the specialist. This text is useful to both the practitioner and the researcher
of the mesoscale phenomena.
Audience
Practitioners and researchers of the mesoscale phenomena.
