Numerical Simulation of Near-Surface Wind during a Severe Wind Event in a Complex Terrain by Multisource Data Assimilation and Dynamic Downscaling

Figure 1

Configuration of the (a) three nested WRF simulation domains in Lambert conformal projection and (b) terrain height (shaded, unit: m in the innermost domain (d03)). The black dots in each figure panel denote the locations of wind towers near the Alataw valley. The black solid line in (b), which goes through the Alataw valley, will be used to draw the vertical cross section (Figure 3).
