Sensitivity of COSMO-CLM Regional Climate Model to the domain selection – in #8: General Questions

in #8: General Questions

<p> Hi Hans-Juergen, </p> <p> thanks a lot for the response. I have used <span class="caps"> ERAI </span> nterim data and yes the INT2LM domain is 12 grid points larger (6 grid points from each side). I have replotted Figure 1 with all the grids over it: </p> <p> http://users.met.fu-berlin.de/~BijanFallah/Figure_test.pdf </p> <p> And for analysis I use the overlapping area of the domains so automatically it will be 4 grid points smaller than the not-shifted domain (inner solid black box in the figures). And then in the next step I even make the <span class="caps"> CCLM </span> domain smaller in Figure 3. Given this I imagine that the sponge zone is already ignored? </p> <p> Best Regards, <br/> Bijan </p>

Hi Hans-Juergen,

And then in the next step I even make the CCLM domain smaller in Figure 3. Given this I imagine that the sponge zone is already ignored?
