Continuous Large-Scale Forcing Data for Cloud Modeling From Southern Great Plains Extended to October 2018
The seasonal cycle of Southern Great Plains domain-averaged latent heat (LH) and sensible heat (SH) fluxes is shown by using QCECOR-only (QCECOR), BAEBBR-only (BAEBBR), and both QCECOR and BAEBBR data (merged) averaged from 2004 to 2015, and the impact to the derived large-scale vertical velocity (omega). Version 2 of the continuous forcing value-added product uses…
