Can machine learning improve the model representation of turbulent kinetic energy dissipation rate in the boundary layer for complex terrain?

<p>Current turbulence parameterizations in numerical weather prediction models at the mesoscale assume a local equilibrium between production and dissipation of turbulence. As this assumption does not hold at fine horizontal resolutions, improved ways to represent turbulent kinetic energy (TKE...
