ABSTRACT In the present work, sensitivity experiments for two parameter schemes are conducted using the Regional Climate Model System, version 4.6, to improve the model capability for reproducing rainfall over the Maritime Continent (MC). One parameter is the warm cloud auto-conversion threshold in the Emanuel convective scheme, and the other parameter is the relative humidity threshold of cloudiness in the subgrid explicit moisture microphysics scheme. Our results show that using the optimized values of these two parameters can reduce the rainfall bias over land in the western MC. In addition, we also show that the choice of the sea surface temperature forcing data is important in improving the model's performance. The improvement is confirmed from extreme year simulations and the long-run simulation in both spatial and temporal characteristics. The optimized simulation shows improved model performance in both wet and dry seasons. The underestimation of the annual and interannual rainfall variability is alleviated in the optimized simulation. This indicates the model's ability to reproduce the MC's rainfall under the appropriate parameterization schemes. We expect that our optimized parameterization can be used to reproduce more reliable downscaled rainfall data to support various climate research activities over the MC.

RegCM4.6海洋大陆降水对暖云自动转换阈值和云量相对湿度阈值的敏感性试验

摘要 在目前的工作中,使用区域气候模型系统 4.6 版对两个参数方案进行了敏感性实验,以提高模型在海洋大陆 (MC) 上再现降雨的能力。一个参数是伊曼纽尔对流方案中的暖云自动转换阈值,另一个参数是亚网格显式水分微物理方案中的云量相对湿度阈值。我们的结果表明,使用这两个参数的优化值可以减少西部 MC 陆地上的降雨偏差。此外,我们还表明,海面温度强迫数据的选择对于提高模型性能很重要。极端年份模拟和长期模拟在空间和时间特征上都证实了这种改进。优化后的模拟显示模型在雨季和旱季的性能都有所提高。在优化的模拟中,对年和年际降雨变率的低估得到了缓解。这表明该模型能够在适当的参数化方案下再现 MC 的降雨量。我们希望我们优化的参数化可用于重现更可靠的降尺度降雨数据,以支持 MC 上的各种气候研究活动。在适当的参数化方案下重现 MC 降雨的能力。我们希望我们优化的参数化可用于重现更可靠的降尺度降雨数据,以支持 MC 上的各种气候研究活动。在适当的参数化方案下重现 MC 降雨的能力。我们希望我们优化的参数化可用于重现更可靠的降尺度降雨数据,以支持 MC 上的各种气候研究活动。
