Abstract

The scope of this project is the investigation of the performance of regional climate simulations with Weather Research and Forecast (WRF) model in the frame of EURO-CORDEX (CORDEX for the European Domain: www.euro-cordex.net ) at 12 km down to simulations at the convection permitting scale. Within this context the objectives are to provide high resolution climatological data to the scientific community and support the quality assessment and interpretation of the regional climate projections for Europe through the contribution to the climate model ensemble for Europe (EURO-CORDEX) for the next IPCC (International Panel of Climatic Change) report. Special attention is paid to the land-surface-vegetation-atmosphere feedback processes, namely the development of the atmospheric boundary layer. Further, the model is validated with high-resolution case studies applying advanced data assimilation to improve the process understanding over a wide range of temporal scales. This also addresses whether the model is able to reasonably represent extreme events. The current status of regional climate simulations and land-atmosphere feedback in convection permitting simulations in WRFCLIM is reported.
