Details
Executive Summary : | The understanding of dynamical and thermodynamical processes in the short lived severe convection in association with urbanization is vital. Therefore, the customized high resolution model with input of urbanization and anthropogenic heating is expected to provide more realistic analyses that give insight to understand the changes in dynamical and thermodynamical processes. The project aims to customize the high resolution model for prediction of urban thunderstorms and modification of rainfall associated with urban thunderstorms. |
