Simulating orographic rainfall with a limited-area, non-hydrostatic atmospheric model under idealized forcing
A modified version of an operational 3-dimensional, non-hydrostatic, limited-area atmospheric model (MM5) was used to perform high-resolution, idealized simulations of the interaction of an infinitely long single ridge with a steady, lateral large-scale wind field. The effect of different mountain...
