This Concept Map, created with IHMC CmapTools, has information related to: MesoscaleMOdels, More Detailed Terrain DB than Global Models, Mesoscale Models can be Non-hydrostatic, Mesoscale Models cover more local events, Small-scale weather events eg wind prediction, Small-scale weather events eg Gust fronts/ outflow boundaries, Mesoscale Models limited by quality of More Detailed Terrain DB, 30 min to 2 days eg used at Atlanta Olympics, Gust fronts/ outflow boundaries associated with MesoscaleConvective Ccomplexes, Increased Horizontal Resolution eg 1 Km models, Mesoscale Models have Increased Vertical Resolution, Increased Horizontal Resolution due to smaller Grid Size, Increased Horizontal Resolution eg 9 Km models, Non-hydrostatic maps vertical acceleration, Mesoscale Models examples include Eta Coordinate Models, Local Topologies eg City Industry, Mesoscale Models are nested within Global Models, Increased Vertical Resolution eg 30 layers, Mesoscale Models can be Hydrostatic, Global Models based on Global data source, Local Topologies stored in More Detailed Terrain DB
