Feature calibration for computer models
Wenzhe Xu, Daniel B. Williamson, Frederic Hourdin +1
Computer model calibration involves using partial and imperfect observations of the real world to learn which values of a model's input parameters lead to outputs that are consiste…
The "teapot in a city": a paradigm shift in urban climate modeling
Najda Villefranque, Frédéric Hourdin, Louis d'Alençon +12
Urban areas are a high-stake target of climate change mitigation and adaptation measures. To understand, predict and improve the energy performance of cities, the scientific commun…
Are General Circulation Models obsolete?
V. Balaji, Fleur Couvreux, Julie Deshayes +3
Traditional general circulation models, or GCMs -- i.e. 3D dynamical models with unresolved terms represented in equations with tunable parameters -- have been a mainstay of climat…
A Thermal Plume Model for the Martian Convective Boundary Layer
Arnaud Colaïtis, Aymeric Spiga, Frédéric Hourdin +3
The Martian Planetary Boundary Layer [PBL] is a crucial component of the Martian climate system. Global Climate Models [GCMs] and Mesoscale Models [MMs] lack the resolution to pred…
Wind measurements in Mars' middle atmosphere at equinox and solstice: IRAM Plateau de Bure interferometric CO observations
R. Moreno, E. Lellouch, T. Encrenaz +4
Characterizing the Martian atmosphere is an essential objective to understand its meteorology and its climate. The lower atmosphere (< 40 km) and middle atmosphere (40-80 km) of Ma…
