In this work, a diagnostic scheme for lower atmospheric ducts was established based on the Weather Research and Forecasting (WRF) model. More specifically, a 10-year simulation test was conducted for the China seas to investigate the spatio-temporal characteristics of the lower atmospheric ducts phenomenon. Compared with the sounding data, the long-term simulations showed a high temporal correlation and the root mean square er...
