Mesoscale model simulation of a severe summer Thunderstorm in The Netherlands: Performance and uncertainty assessment for parameterised and resolved convection
On the evening of 23 June 2016 around 18:00 UTC, a mesoscale convective system (MCS) with hail and wind gusts passed the southern province Noord-Brabant in the Netherlands, and caused 675 millions of euros damage. This study evaluates the performance of the Weather Research and Forecasting model with three cumulus parameterisation schemes (Betts-Miller-Janjic, Grell-Freitas and Kain-Fritsch) on a grid spacing of 4 km in the 'grey-zone' and with explicitly resolved convection at 2 and 4 km grid spacing. The results of the five experiments are evaluated against observations of accumulated rainfa... Mehr ...
