Sensitivity studies on rain heterogeneity in Hamburg city centre using the obstacle-resolving model MITRAS

This experiment contains sensitivity test results (Ferner et al. 2023) of 11 simulations with the microscale, obstacle-resolving model MITRAS v 3.1 (Salim et al., 2018; Schluenzen et al., 2018) for a domain of 1.6 x 1.8 km² around Hamburg City Hall in Hamburg. The domain contains various street configurations, open spaces, water surfaces, orography and building heights. The simulations were performed with different initial wind speeds, rain amounts, wind directions, and domain configurations. The simulations cover 1:40 hours, starting at 7:30 LST (LST refers to Local Solar Time), with a temporal resolution of 10, 1 or 5 minutes. This experiment contains a selection of output variables, control variables are not included.


The file names of the data sets are composed as follows.

{precipitation}_{intensity}_{windspeed}_ {intensity}_{winddirection}_{value}_{case ID}.nc


There are 3 intensities: low, medium, high

Associated values are these:

pr_low = 0.5 mm, pr_medium =0.9 mm, pr_high = 1.7 mm (after 10 minutes)

ff_low = 2 m/s, ff_medium = 4 m/s, ff_high = 4 m/s


Example:

pr_medium_ff_low_dd_270_ML27.nc

Attribute description
height_above_mean_sea_level
Descriptor

"Height_above_X" means the vertical distance above the named surface X. "Mean sea level" means the time mean of sea surface elevation at a given location over an arbitrary period sufficient to eliminate the tidal signals. [CF-Standard Name]; unit: not filled

Attribute description
air_temperature
Descriptor

Air temperature is the bulk temperature of the air, not the surface (skin) temperature. [CF-Standard Name]; unit: not filled

Attribute description
air_density
Descriptor

[CF-Standard Name]; unit: not filled

Attribute description
projection_x_coordinate
Descriptor

"x" indicates a vector component along the grid x-axis, when this is not true longitude, positive with increasing x. Projection coordinates are distances in the x- and y-directions on a plane onto which the surface of the Earth has been projected according to a map projection. The relationship between the projection coordinates and latitude and longitude is described by the grid_mapping. [CF-Standard Name]; unit: not filled

Attribute description
relative_humidity
Descriptor

relative_humidity [CF-Standard Name]; unit: not filled

Attribute description
projection_y_coordinate
Descriptor

"y" indicates a vector component along the grid y-axis, when this is not true latitude, positive with increasing y. Projection coordinates are distances in the x- and y-directions on a plane onto which the surface of the Earth has been projected according to a map projection. The relationship between the projection coordinates and latitude and longitude is described by the grid_mapping. [CF-Standard Name]; unit: not filled

Attribute description
x_wind
Descriptor

"x" indicates a vector component along the grid x-axis, when this is not true longitude, positive with increasing x. Wind is defined as a two-dimensional (horizontal) air velocity vector, with no vertical component. (Vertical motion in the atmosphere has the standard name upward_air_velocity.)[CF-Standard Name]; unit: not filled

Attribute description
upward_air_velocity
Descriptor

vertical wind velocity A velocity is a vector quantity. "Upward" indicates a vector component which is positive when directed upward (negative downward). Upward air velocity is the vertical component of the 3D air velocity vector. [CF-Standard Name]; unit: not filled

Attribute description
air_pressure
Descriptor

air_pressure [CF-Standard Name]; unit: not filled

Attribute description
surface_altitude
Descriptor

The surface called "surface" means the lower boundary of the atmosphere. Altitude is the (geometric) height above the geoid, which is the reference geopotential surface. The geoid is similar to mean sea level.[CF-Standard Name]; unit: not filled

Attribute description
y_wind
Descriptor

"y" indicates a vector component along the grid y-axis, when this is not true latitude, positive with increasing y. Wind is defined as a two-dimensional (horizontal) air velocity vector, with no vertical component. (Vertical motion in the atmosphere has the standard name upward_air_velocity.)[CF-Standard Name]; unit: not filled
