Abstract
The default SBU-YLIN scheme in Weather Research and Forecasting Model (WRF) is proved having a limited capability of producing a reasonable cold pool in squall line simulations. With the help of wealthy observation data of a squall line, we finally improve it by: adding a density factor to the precipitating ice; modify the rain evaporation scheme and correct the saturation adjustment process. The improved SBU-YLIN scheme could produce a reasonable cold pool. Simulation of another two squall line cases in northern and eastern China confirm our modifications are effective. In addition, further analysis reveals that the modification of rain evaporation scheme is the most important among them.
