Sensitivity Study of WRF Simulations over Tanzania for Extreme Events during Wet and Dry Seasons

Sensitivity Study of WRF Simulations over Tanzania for Extreme Events during Wet and Dry Seasons

Precipitation prediction is important to help mitigate the effects of drought and floods on various social and economic activities. This research is to improve the forecasting skill over Tanzania by providing suitable combinations of physical parameterization schemes and horizontal grid spacing of t...
