Abstract
In the frame of the APSIS experiment, three mesoscale meteorological models have been used over the Attic Peninsula. TVM (IAG UCl) developed from the URBMET code (USA, 1985) is hydrostatic, boussinesq and written in vorticity. MAR (IAG-UCL) is a fully compressible hydrostatic primitive equations model, and RAMS (CSU, USA) is non hydrostatic and fully compressible. These three models have been tested on the Athens region where strong interactions exist between different sea-breeze cells and the complex topography. Suring unstable daytime conditions, all models are shown to produce similar wind fields and good agreement with measurements, while the stable night-time leads to leads to larger differences.
