| Abstract: | Now more comprehensive cloud microphysical processes have been included in advanced three-dimensional mesoscale meteorological model such as PSU/NCAR MM5 model,so the model can be used in the prediction of fog.In this paper,MM5 was utilized to simulate an advection fog occurring in Nanling Mountain area.The simulated results were compared with the facts obtained by detailed observation experiment.The results showed that the simulation was successful in the following aspects:(1)the formation and development of the fog;(2)the temporal variation of the maximum liquid water content;(3)the diffusion of the cold air,especially the temporal variation of the ground temperature;and (4)the uplift of the air and the formation and development of the low-lever inversion.Besides,we did some sensitivity numerical experiments and discussed the effects of the radiation,the release of condensation latent heat and the change of soil moisture and temperature on the formation and development of fog.The success of numerical simulation experiment of fog has proved that the numerical forecasting of fog is promising. |
