Impacts of resolution: difference of annual air temperature in 25 and 50 km (G25 minus G50)

A general behavior of the parameterizations:

  • ver continent the air temperature are lower in G25 than in G50
  • differences between G25 and G50: are larger in Gas and smaller in Emanuel

Conclusions

Fine horizontal resolution helps to improve the simulated rainfall intensity and spatial pattern by:

  • Emanuel: decreasing the intensity of rainfall in most part of tropical SA and

increasing it over southeastern SA (LPB) ! biases ,+'5+%-+

  • KF: has a behavior similar to Emanuel, but with small differences of intensity (from

G25 to G250)

  • Gas and Gfc: increase rainfall intensity in most part of SA.
  • Except in Gas ! more realistic simulation of rainfall in G25 is followed by the

decrease (increase) of convective (grid scale) rainfall in most part of domain. Emanuel: stronger decrease of convective rainfall in wet periods over Amazon (!!!);

  • High frequency variability of rainfall is better reproduced by all schemes over AMZ

(correlation > 0.88 for 5 days running mean) than over LPB
