Evaluation of the Snow-Ice Enhanced Weather Research and Forecasting Model
The performance of the snow-ice enhanced Weather Research and Forecasting (WRF-ice) model was evaluated for the simulation of a mesocyclone at a 5-km resolution for the period of October 23-25, 2017 over the Antarctic Peninsula (AP) using the Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS).
