Improved Regional Analyses and Heavy Precipitation Forecasts With Assimilation of Atmospheric Infrared Sounder Retrieved Thermodynamic Profiles

This paper describes a procedure to assimilate Atmospheric Infrared Sounder (AIRS)-retrieved thermodynamic profiles into a regional configuration of the Weather Research and Forecasting (WRF) model and validates subsequent precipitation forecasts over the eastern half of the continental U.S. Quality...
