Effects of the Representation of Convection on the Modelling of Hurricane Tomas (2010)

Figure 1

The parent (15 km grid spacing) and inner (5 km grid spacing) domains used in the numerical experiments with WRF-ARW model are depicted in blue and yellow, respectively. The best track (i.e., the observed one) of Hurricane Tomas [9] for the period from 00UTC on 1 November to 00UTC on 6 November 2010 is represented by black crosses.
