<table>Terrain within FLUENT simulation is shown in (a) and (b). (c) gives the background atmospheric condition for the simulation as obtained from the radiosonde sounding in Hong Kong at 12 UTC, September 29, 2011. The figures include the wind direction profile, wind speed profile, and temperature and humidity profiles.</table>
