WRF-LES (Large Eddy Simulation)

WRF-LES (Weather Research and Forecasting - Large Eddy Simulation) is a computer modeling technique used to simulate atmospheric processes, especially turbulence and small-scale weather phenomena. Unlike traditional models that average out small details, WRF-LES captures large turbulent eddies directly, providing a more detailed and accurate picture of how air moves and mixes. This helps improve understanding and prediction of local weather, clouds, and urban air flows. It requires significant computing power but offers insights into complex atmospheric behavior that simpler models may miss.
