【 摘 要 】

There have been very few mesoscale modelling studies of the Indian monsoon, with focus on the verification and intercomparison of the operational real time forecasts. With the exception of Das et al (2008), most of the studies in the literature are either the case studies of tropical cyclones and thunderstorms or the sensitivity studies involving physical parameterization or climate simulation studies. Almost all the studies are based on either National Center for Environmental Prediction (NCEP), USA, final analysis fields (NCEP FNL) or the reanalysis data used as initial and lateral boundary conditions for driving the mesoscale model.Here we present a mesoscale model forecast verification and intercomparison study over India involving three mesoscale models:the Weather Research and Forecast (WRF) model developed at the National Center for Atmospheric Research (NCAR), USA,
