Simulations of Atmospheric Dynamics and Cloudiness In A Coastal Region

Abstract

The goal of this project is to increase our understanding of the modification of complex atmospheric dynamics and thermodynamics due to the interaction of the air, sea, and land in a coastal region. This increased understanding will improve the forecasting of coastal weather on a wide spectrum of spatial and temporal scales.
