Numerical weather prediction with WRF model
Kotků, Jirka ; Belda, Michal (advisor) ; Huszár, Peter (referee)
This bachelor's thesis deals with the comparison of the simulation results using different vertical coordinate systems, namely the terrain following system and the hybrid vertical coordinate system. We begin with the brief introduction of numerical prediction models in general and then the introduction of the WRF model used in this thesis. The attention is paid to the description of vertical coordinate systems as well as to the presentation of its components and the process of starting a simulation. The next section describes the setting of the WRF model used in this thesis. It is followed by the graphical output of the simulations with the comparison of the results. Comparison of the vertical temperature and wind speed profile was made with real data from the soundings performed in Prague-Libuš by the Czech Hydrometeorological Institute.

On the assessment of urbanization application in weather forecasting model
Nováková, Tereza ; Halenka, Tomáš (advisor) ; Žák, Michal (referee)
Built-up areas represent an artifiial impait to natural environment with large spatial variability and speiifi meihaniit radiationt thermal and ihemiial properties. Despite of inireasing horizontal resolution of numeriial weather prediition modelst the impait of loial built-up area on mesosynoptiv weather phenomena is still not well resolved. Therefore it is neiessary to use some of urban environment modelst whiih were designed to parameterize speiifi urban prosiessest not expliiitly resolved inside the grid box. In the thesis main urban iharaiteristiis are explained (impait on the struiture of boundary layert radiation and heat balanie of urban environment or urban heat island)t basii priniiples of urbanization appliiation in the numeriial weather model are desiribedt as well as different urban parameterizations available in numeriial model WRFe (Weather Reseaih and Feoreiasting). Number of validation experiments were performed for summer and winter episode in non-hydrostatii mode at 3t3 km resolutiont where different urban parametrizationst antropogenii heat adjustment and impait of mosaii land-use were tested. April 2018 Prague weather foreiast was verifiated in ionsideration of urban heat island.

Tests and validation of WRF model for weather forecasting
Nováková, Tereza ; Halenka, Tomáš (advisor) ; Žák, Michal (referee)
Testing and validation of the numerical prediction model is an important part of its usage for weather prediction. The simulations have been performed with model WRF (Weather Research and Forecasting), of which basic principles are described. The simulation was set up in reanalysis mode, i.e. with perfect boundary conditions, for one month, July of 2000. The simulation in hydrostatic approximation with 10 km resolution is compared to the simulation with one nested domain in non-hydrostatic mode with 2 km resolution. The study is aimed at the convective and stratiform precipitation in daily total amount of precipitation and compared to the total amount from observed data. In addition, a two-day weather forecast was validated. The forecast has been run daily since January 2016 at the Department of Atmospheric Physics. Standard deviation of 24 and 48 hour forecast is compared with GFS global model analysis. Powered by TCPDF (www.tcpdf.org)
