In this paper we present the current version of the Parallelized Large-Eddy Simulation Model
(PALM) whose core has been developed at the Institute of Meteorology and Climatology at …

Numerical studies of sea and lake breezes are reviewed. The modelled dependence of sea-
breeze and lake-breeze characteristics on the land surface sensible heat flux, ambient …

The spatial representativeness of heat fluxes on the basis of single-tower measurements,
and the mechanism of the so-called energy imbalance problem, are investigated through …

This manuscript describes numerical experiments investigating the influence of 2–30-km
striplike heterogeneity on wet and dry convective boundary layers coupled to the land …

Large-eddy simulations are widely used to study flows in the atmospheric boundary layer.
As atmospheric boundary-layer flows of different atmospheric stratification have very …

We investigate the impact of observed surface heterogeneities during the LITFASS-2003
experiment on the convective boundary layer (CBL). Large-eddy simulations (LES), driven …

In this paper, a new Lagrangian cloud model (LCM) is introduced in which the flow field is
simulated by large-eddy simulation, and the droplets are treated as Lagrangian particles …

A large-eddy simulation (LES) study is presented that investigates the spatial variability of
temporal eddy covariance fluxes and the systematic underestimation of representative fluxes …

Recent observational studies have described the non-closure of the energy balance when
the eddy covariance (EC) method is used for the measurements. We investigated this …

The influence of land surface heterogeneity on potential cloud formation is investigated
using relative humidity as an indicator. This is done by performing numerical experiments …
