The second edition of Mesoscale Meteorological Modeling is a fully revised resource for researchers and practitioners in the growing field of meteorological modeling at the mesoscale. Pielke has enhanced the new edition by quantifying model capability (uncertainty) by a detailed evaluation of the assumptions of parameterization and error propagation. Mesoscale models are applied in a wide variety of studies including weather prediction, regional and local climate assessments, and air pollution investigations. Features: Up-to-date overview of numerical modeling appropriate to the practitioner as well as to the researcher of mesoscale phenomena; New numerical and analytical tools are introduced; The appendix of the book provides summaries of the framework and applications of a suite of mesoscale models as of early 2001; Instructors will appreciate the new problems that have been added to the text.
