Description:
Many climatologists are interested in understanding energy transport in the atmosphere due to wind and precipitation. A thesis currently being investigated is that immersion in a virtual world that models the one in which we live may enable scientists to better understand Earth’s dynamic climate processes. This demonstration represents output from a regional climate model for the western United States. Data from the model are compared with actual measurements to help gauge the validity of the model.
