Quantitative precipitation estimation based on high-resolution numerical weather prediction and data assimilation with WRF – a performance test

Quantitative precipitation estimation and forecasting (QPE and QPF) are among the most challenging tasks in atmospheric sciences. In this work, QPE based on numerical modelling and data assimilation is investigated. Key components are the Weather Research and Forecasting (WRF) model in combination w...
