Using the WRF Model to Refine NCEP CFSv2 Reanalysis Atmospheric Profile: A Southern Brazil Test Case

Abstract: ABSTRACT. The vertical distribution of atmospheric parameters is pivotal to understand atmospheric dynamic processes. This study analyzes the use of the Weather Research and Forecasting (WRF) model to generate atmospheric profiles as an alternative for a local radiosonde. We performed simulations in the WRF model for two dates with distinct weather conditions (01/09/2018 – cloudy and 03/14/2018 – clear-sky). The simulated data were compared with radiosondes launched in the study area, both (i) along the entire… Show more

“…It suggests that computation costs can be saved by using profiles from a WRF domain with coarse horizontal resolution. Despite other aims, scholars have already reported this kind of result with WRF model grids [24,[47][48][49][50].…”
