The Climate Model Development and Validation (CMDV) project is designed to bridge data of the kind ARM collects related to mesoscale convective systems with global model simulations of those systems. (arm.gov)
In the first study, the research team from PNNL and Los Alamos National Laboratory used idealized global model simulations of the aquaplanet with Model for Prediction Across Scales - Atmosphere (MPAS - A) and Weather Research and Forecasting Model (WRF) to run at low, high and variable resolutions.

An international group of atmospheric chemists and physicist could now have solved another piece in the climate puzzle by means of laboratory experiments and global model simulations. (sciencedaily.com)
