A SENSITIVITY STUDY OF SURFACE WIND SIMULATIONS OVER COASTAL GHANA TO SELECTED TIME CONTROL AND NUDGING OPTIONS IN THE WEATHER RESEARCH AND FORECASTING MODEL

A sensitivity study of Surface Wind simulations over Coastal Ghana to selected Time Control and Nudging options in the Weather Research and Forecasting Model

Over the years, the Weather Research and Forecasting Model (WRF) has been gaining popularity as a low-cost alternative source of data for wind resource assessments.This paper investigates the impact of selected time control, and nudging options on wind simulations in WRF.We conducted 15 numerical experiments, combining 5 simulation run-times and 3
