Assimilating remotely sensed cloud optical thickness into a mesoscale model

The Advanced Regional Prediction System, a mesoscale atmospheric model, is applied to simulate the month of June 2006 with a focus on the near surface air temperatures around Paris. To improve the simulated temperatures which show errors up to 10 K during a day on which a cold front passed Paris, a...
