Our program goal is to improve weather-forecast quality in coastal and mountainous terrain, and to better predict weather-related disasters. To do this, we start with computer codes called numerical weather prediction (NWP) models that solve the fluid-dynamics equations of the atmosphere. We modify these models to better resolve smaller-scale weather features -- critically important in complex terrain. With these NWP models as tools, we will pursue the following projects, and will test our success by comparing our research forecasts daily against surface weather observations.

我们的计划目标是提高沿海和山区的天气预报质量，并更好地预报与天气有关的灾害。为了做到这一点，我们从名为数值天气预报(NWP)模型的计算机代码开始，该模型求解大气的流体动力学方程。我们对这些模型进行了修改，以更好地解决较小尺度的天气特征--这在复杂地形中至关重要。有了这些数值预报模式作为工具，我们将进行以下项目，并将通过比较我们每天的研究预报和地面天气观测来测试我们的成功。
