| Description |
The Fifth-Generation National Center for Atmospheric Research / Penn State Mesoscale Model (MM5) is deployed to investigate the
importance of realistic representation of land surface in a regional model for simulating the meteorological features associated with the
southwest monsoon. Experiments are conducted to study the impact of satellite derived land surface data such as vegetation fraction,
vegetation type (both derived from SPOT VEGETATION) and surface soil moisture (derived from SSM/I) on MM5 simulated
meteorological fields for the contrasting Indian summer monsoon years 1998 & 2002. The incorporation of satellite derived land surface
data in the MM5 initial condition improved the simulations both in 1998 and 2002 monsoon season, but improvement is not significant when the satellite derived land surface parameters individually incorporated in the model initial condition.
