A numerical study of floe in Athens area using the MIUU model
Melas, D. and Enger L.
[abstract] The flow regime in Greater Athens Area (GAA) io numerically investigated by a mesoscale, higher-order turbulence closure model. The model is three-dimensional, hydrostatic, and with a terrain following coordinate system. It has been developed at the Department of Meteorology in Uppsala (MIUU). The numerical investigation was performed within the frame of the Athenian Photochemical Smog Intercomparison of Simulations (APSIS) and the day chosen for simulation is May 25, 1990. Although the geostrophic wind was kept constant throughout the simulation period, the simulated wind fields in the lower layers are quite variable both in time as well as in space. The major characteristics of the flow field during day-hours, are identified and discussed.
