Why is it so difficult to represent stably stratified conditions in numerical weather prediction (NWP) models?
In the 1990s, scientists at European Centre for Medium‐Range Weather Forecasts (ECMWF) suggested that artificially enhancing turbulent diffusion in stable conditions improves the representation of two important aspects of weather forecasts, i.e., near‐surface temperatures and synoptic cyclones. Sinc...
