The 3rd 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. Broad expansion of the concepts of parameterization and parameterization methodology Addition of new modeling approaches, including modeling summaries and summaries of data setsAll-new section on dynamic downscaling INDICE: 1 Introduction 2 Basic Set of Equations 3 Simplification of the Basic Equations 4 Averaging the Conservation Relations 5 Physical and Analytic Modeling 6 Coordinate Transformations 7 Traditional Parameterizations 8 New Parameterization Approaches 9 Methods of Solution 10 Boundary and Initial Conditions 11 Model Evaluation 12 Mesoscale Modeling and Satellite Simulator 13 Examples of Mesoscale Models 14 Synoptic-Scale Background
