Description
Summary:Reference Elevation Model of Antarctica (REMA) topography and AntarcticaLC2000 landuse data are now available as static data input for the Weather Research and Forecasting model (WRF). Topography and landuse are made available at a spatial resolution of 1 km. This documentation describes the methods applied to convert REMA and AntarcticaLC2000 to WRF readable format and shows how this improves the representation of the Antarctic topography and landuse categories over coastal Antarctic regions. ...
