Abstract The Central European limited‐area ensemble forecasting system ALADIN‐LAEF (Aire Limitée Adaptation Dynamique Développement InterNational—Limited‐Area Ensemble Forecasting) has been developed within the framework of ALADIN international cooperation and Regional Cooperation for Limited‐Area modelling in Europe (RC LACE). It was put into pre‐operation March 2007. main feature pre‐operational dynamical downscaling global forecast from Centre Medium‐range Weather Forecasts (ECMWF). In...
Abstract While statistical analyses and observations show that severe bora with maximum gusts exceeding 40 m s−1 can occur in all parts of the Adriatic, research to date has been mainly focused on dynamics structure northern Adriatic. Examined a significantly lesser degree is less predictable counterpart southern where Dinaric Alps are higher, broader, steeper, upwind layer generally well defined. Identification main differences sequence mesoscale macroscale events leading onset eastern...
Abstract The results of numerically modeled wind speed climate, a primary component energy resource assessment in the complex terrain Croatia, are given. For that purpose, dynamical downscaling 10 yr (1992–2001) 40-yr ECMWF Re-Analysis (ERA-40) was performed to 8-km horizontal grid spacing with use spectral, prognostic full-physics model Aire Limitée Adaptation Dynamique Développement International (ALADIN; “ALHR” version). Then data 60-min frequency were refined 2-km simplified and...
In gilthead seabream the number of domesticated individuals increased annually, and escape events occur regularly in Adriatic Sea. Still there is a lack population genetic characteristics evidence extent geographic scale interbreeding resulting from fish-farm escapees. We screened 1586 using panel 21 neutral microsatellite loci several consecutive years here report on medium-scale detection hybrid farmed natural environment. Wild adults showed structure within basin sampling reduced...
Abstract Dynamical downscaling has been applied to global ensemble forecasts assess its impact for four cases of severe weather (precipitation and wind) over various parts Croatia. It was performed with the Croatian 12.2-km version Aire Limitée Adaptation Dynamique Développement International (ALADIN) limited-area model, nested in ECMWF TL255 (approximately 80 km) prediction system (EPS). The 3-hourly EPS output used force ALADIN model central European/northern Mediterranean domain. Results...
Abstract. The HYdrological cycle in the Mediterranean EXperiment (HyMeX) is intended to improve capabilities of predicting high-impact weather events. Within its framework, aim first special observation period (SOP1), 5 September 6 November 2012, was study heavy precipitation events and flash floods. Here, we present over Croatia that occurred during SOP1. Particular attention given eight intense periods (IOPs), which high eastern Adriatic Dinaric Alps. During entire SOP1, operational model...
During routine monitoring of commercial purse seine catches in 2011, 87 fingerling specimens scombrids were collected the southern Adriatic Sea. Sequencing mitochondrial DNA control region locus inferred that belonged to Atlantic bluefin tuna, Thunnus thynnus (Linnaeus, 1758) (N = 29), bullet Auxis rochei (Risso, 1810) 30) and little tunny, Euthynnus alletteratus, Rafinesque, 1810 28). According previously published growth parameters, age was estimated at approximately 30-40 days, suggesting...
In order to better understand the influence of initial and boundary conditions on numerical model results for MAP IOP5 (heavy precipitation) IOP15 (severe Bora wind), experiments were performed using operational ALADIN/HR (hydrostatic) limited area model. Three performed. For reference experiment (ARPE), ARPEGE analyses from 1999 used. The other two (ECAR ECMW) initialized 4D-Var ECMWF reanalysis. ECAR, surface analysis was used ARPEGE. presented here emphasise huge importance low-level...
