Description

This study aims to improve the atmospheric boundary condition in mesoscale model by satellite derived-land surface temperature. We have performed the WRF-UCM (Urban Canopy Model) using land surface temperature (LST) retrieved from MODIS satellite data. We evaluate the performance of the coupled WRF-UCM modeling system using LST against surface observation in Seoul, South Korea
