“…The simulations for the medium-range forecasts in this study are conducted using the global NWP model in the GRIMs, which is not coupled with the three-dimensional ocean general circulation model. Spherical harmonics is selected as the dynamic core, and the physics parameterization schemes include the revised Rapid Radiative Transfer Model (RRTMG) for the general circulation models (Iacono et al, 2008, RRTMK;Baek, 2017); the Weather Research and Forecasting (WRF) single-moment 5-class (WSM5) microphysics scheme (Hong et al, 2004), with the effective hydrometeor radius for radiation (Bae et al, 2016); the simplified Arakawa-Schubert (SAS) cumulus convection scheme (Han et al, 2016;Hong & Pan, 1998;Kwon & Hong, 2017;Lim et al, 2014;Pan & Wu, 1995); the GRIMs shallow convection scheme (Hong & Jang, 2018); the prognostic cloudiness scheme (Park et al, 2016); the scale-aware Yonsei University (YSU) PBL scheme (Hong et al, 2006;Shin & Hong, 2015), with top-down turbulent mixing by the stratocumulus-topped boundary layer (Lee et al, 2018); the Noah land surface model (Chen & Dudhia, 2001;Ek et al, 2003;Koo et al, 2017); and the orographic, convective, and frontal spectral gravity wave drag parameterization schemes (Choi & Chun, 2011;Choi & Hong, 2015;Hong et al, 2008;Richter et al, 2010). The simple slab ocean mixed-layer model, based on the schemes that include wind-driven mixing, introduced by Pollard (1973), and the sea surface skin temperature, suggested by Zeng and Beljaars (2005), is included to estimate the diurnal SST variations in response to the net heat flux and wind stress at the surface (Kim & Hong, 2010).…”
