Abstract

We describe a procedure for the initialization of the divergent wind component in a mesoscale, numerical weather prediction model and evaluate it in terms of its ability to provide an improved short-range precipitation forecast. The divergent wind component was obtained from a vertical velocity field that was diagnosed using an omega equation. -from Authors
