Modeling the dynamics of the refraction coefficient field for radiowaves of the centimeter range in the lower atmospheric layer

Study of mesoscale irregularities of the refraction coefficient of radiowaves in the troposphere by the methods of numerical simulation

“…Calculation results provide a high potential for the further studies. The employed model of atmospheric processes was verified earlier by meteorological data, and its sufficient adequacy was shown [8,9]. Nevertheless, we tested our results of modeling of the mesoscale irregular structure of the refraction coefficient for correspondence to experimental data.…”

“…The WRF model implements a wide set of methods for parameterization of the physics of separate atmospheric processes in the form of numerical schemes. The model is in open access, and studies on its basis [8,9] showing good prospects for its use in research problems have recently appeared in Russia.…”

“…For verification of the model parameters and modeling results, we use a unique database of minuteby-minute monitoring of meteorologocal parameters and a number of admixtures in the network of spatially separated stations in the East-European region of Russia from 1996 to 2005 inclusive [8,9].…”
