Intercomparison of Local

[A clear convective boundary
layer (CBL) developed over Cabauw (the Netherlands) during the 2nd and
3rd May 1995 is simulated by MM5. The CBL is used to intercompare the
performance of four boundary layer schemes implemented at MM5. In particular
the non-local schemes MRF and BLA and the local schemes ETA and BRT. Surface,
upper air variables and the boundary layer depth calculated by MM5 are
compared with detailed observations. It is shown that the non-local schemes
(MRF and BLA) are in a better agreement with the observations]
