Sažetak

This study deals with the optima] strategy for setting up the ALADIN model for the purpose of dynamic downscaling of ERA40 over the Alpine region. The mesoscale model wind field is compared with MAP-SOP reanalysis data and with wind observations at eleven Slovenian stations. As expected, there is an improvement in the conventional statistics at a 10-km grid as compared to the 40-km analyses. However, the differences between the mesoscale model scores at various domains can be greater than the difference between the MAP-SOP reanalyses and a particular mesoscale simulation.
