Organized convection in the tropics occurs across a range of spatial and temporal scales
and strongly influences cloud cover and humidity. One mode of organization found is ''self …

The Madden‐Julian Oscillation (MJO) is the dominant component of the intraseasonal (30–
90 days) variability in the tropical atmosphere. It consists of large‐scale coupled patterns in …

In Part 2 of this two‐part paper, documentation is provided of key aspects of a version of the
AM4. 0/LM4. 0 atmosphere/land model that will serve as a base for a new set of climate and …

Numerous modifications to the Kain–Fritsch convective parameterization have been
implemented over the last decade. These modifications are described, and the motivating …

Warming in: Journal of Climate Volume 33 Issue 6 (2020) Jump to Content Jump to Main …

Accurate prediction of precipitation intensity is crucial for both human and natural systems,
especially in a warming climate more prone to extreme precipitation. Yet, climate models fail …

Recent progress is reviewed in the understanding of convective interaction with water vapor
and changes associated with water vapor in warmer climates. Progress includes new …

In models of radiative–convective equilibrium it is known that convection can spontaneously
aggregate into one single localized moist region if the domain is large enough. The large …

The spatial organization of deep moist convection in radiative–convective equilibrium over a
constant sea surface temperature is studied. A 100-day simulation is performed with a three …
