Wind profiler as a tool to check the ability of two NWP models to forecast winds above highly complex topography

Wind observations from a wind profiler located next to the crest of the Alps are used to test the ability of two Numerical Weather Prediction (NWP) models to forecast the air flow from the surface up to 3000 m above the complex topography. A statistical analysis of the Mesoscale Alpine Programme Spe...
