Aspects of the diurnal cycle in a regional climate model

We analyze the ability of the regional climate model CLM to simulate the European summer climate with particular consideration of mean diurnal cycles of precipitation, surface variables, convective indices and vertical temperature and humidity profiles. We consider three sets of simulations using di...
