The stratocumulus to cumulus transition (SCT) is typically considered to be a slow, multiday
process, caused primarily by dry air entrainment associated with overshooting cumulus, with …

Smoke from southern Africa blankets the southeast Atlantic Ocean from June–October,
producing strong and competing aerosol radiative effects. Smoke effects on the transition …

Lagrangian large‐eddy simulations of a composite stratocumulus to cumulus transition case
over the subtropical northeast Pacific Ocean are subject to perturbed forcings that isolate the …

We explore the cloud system evolution of non-precipitating marine stratocumuli with a focus
on the impacts of the diurnal cycle and free-tropospheric (FT) humidity based on an …

Climate models struggle to accurately represent the highly reflective boundary layer clouds
overlying the remote and stormy Southern Ocean. We use in situ aircraft observations from …

Bin microphysics schemes are useful tools for cloud simulations and are often considered to
provide a benchmark for model intercomparison. However, they may experience issues with …

Marine stratocumulus cloud (Sc) decks with high cloud fraction typically breakup when
sufficient drizzle forms. Cloud breakup leads to a lower cloud radiative effect due to the …

Systematic biases in the representation of boundary layer (BL) clouds are a leading source
of uncertainty in climate projections. A variation on superparameterization (SP) called …

Large‐eddy simulations of a Lagrangian transition from a vertically well‐mixed
stratocumulus‐topped boundary layer to a situation in which shallow cumuli penetrate an …

The two-way transition between closed and open cellular convection is addressed in an
idealized cloud-resolving modeling framework. A series of cloud-resolving simulations …
