Title from cover. Includes bibliographic references. "A decade ago, climate change predictions were made by models on coarse spatial resolution where the focus was more on a global scale. Recently, to improve the accuracy, scientists are able to adapt these models to finer spatial scales and to include more detail processes over land and lake surfaces on a regional basis. The objective of this paper is to improve the efficiency of the combined air, land and water components in a regional climate model. This paper shows that for small lakes, which are in the order of millions in Canada, it is possible to treat them as part of the land model module. Furthermore, as each lake acts quite independent of each other, the calculation of a given lake can be carried out simultaneously as the calculation of another lake is being done. If there is a network of computers or a computer with multi-processors deployed for this use, the running time of the regional climate model will be substantially reduced"--Abstract.
