Downslope windstorm in Iceland –WRF/MM5 model comparison
Rögnvaldsson, Ólafur; Bao, J. W.; Ágústsson, Hálfdán; Ólafsson, Haraldur (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2011-01-05)A severe windstorm downstream of Mt. Öræfajökull in Southeast Iceland is simulated on a grid of 1 km horizontal resolution by using the PSU/NCAR MM5 model and the Advanced Research WRF model. Both models are run with a ... -
Extracting statistical parameters of extreme precipitation from a NWP model
Eliasson, J.; Rögnvaldsson, Ólafur; Jónsson, T. (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2009-11-25)Precipitation simulations on an 8×8 km grid using the PSU/NCAR Mesoscale Model MM5 are used to estimate the M5 and Ci statistical parameters in order to support the M5 map used for flood estimates by Icelandic engineers. ... -
