To what extent does increased model resolution improve simulated precipitation fields? A case study of two north-Alpine heavy-rainfall events

This study considers two north-Alpine heavy-rainfall cases (20-22 May 1999 and 22-23 August 2005) in order to investigate the resolution-dependence of model skill. The simulations are conducted with the Penn State/NCAR mesoscale model MM5 with a variable number of nested domains, resulting in a fine...
