In this paper, the capabilities of COSMO CLM on simulating the main features of the observed climate over the whole Mediterranean area have been analyzed. The investigated period is 19712000.
A simulation driven by ERA40 Reanalysis has been performed at a spatial resolution of 14 km in order to provide an assessment of regional model performance on local scale for impact studies. 2metres mean temperature and total precipitation simulated values have been compared with EOBS observational dataset; moreover, the total cloud cover has been validated with respect to the ERAInterim Reanalysis.
