Towards climate simulations at cloud-resolving scales

This study explores the potential added-value of applying cloud-resolving resolution to climate simulations. A month-long (July 2006) integration is performed with the CCLM on a convection-resolving grid of 2.2-km (0.02°) mesh size spanning the whole Alpine region. The initial and lateral boundary c...
