Impact of small‐scale gravity waves on tracer transport

open access: yesQuarterly Journal of the Royal Meteorological Society, EarlyView.
We extend a gravity wave (GW) parametrization to calculate the tracer transport due to the GW–Stokes drift and next‐order effects, where the approach is validated by comparing coarse‐resolution simulations with parametrized GWs to high‐resolution, wave‐resolving reference simulations.

Turbulent snow transport and accumulation: New reduced‐order models and diagnostics

open access: yesQuarterly Journal of the Royal Meteorological Society, EarlyView.
Our new reduced‐order models of snow particle transport provide high‐fidelity calculations of snow accumulation in turbulent flows at significantly reduced computational costs. Additional accumulation diagnostics from the reduced‐order model predict complex patterns of particle concentration in turbulent boundary layers via coherent flow structures in ...

Mesoscale and microphysical processes leading to extreme hourly rainfall prior to the merger of two mesoscale convective systems in Central China

open access: yesQuarterly Journal of the Royal Meteorological Society, EarlyView.
Short‐term extreme rainfall can be produced by the variation of low‐level warm moist airflow during mesoscale convective systems (MCSs) approaching another. The cold outflow of the rapidly moving MCS intensifies the warm moist airflow in front, enhancing the convergence and ascending motion in the quasi‐stationary MCS.

Sensitivity of flower trade‐wind cloud organisation to mesoscale atmospheric heterogeneities

open access: yesQuarterly Journal of the Royal Meteorological Society, EarlyView.
Trade‐wind cloud organisation is insensitive to dynamical and thermal heterogeneities but very sensitive to humidity mesoscale heterogeneities, especially in the cloud layer, where they form moist patches, and not in the sub‐cloud layer. Clouds and rain develop in moist patches, then cold pools develop progressively, initiating mesoscale circulations ...

Parameter investigation for urban surface‐energy balance: A large‐eddy simulation study

open access: yesQuarterly Journal of the Royal Meteorological Society, EarlyView.
Large eddy simulation modelling is used to investigate the variation in surface‐energy balance (SEB) across an ensemble of morphometrically identical urban geometries. The geometries have the same plan‐area fraction, vegetated fraction, and frontal‐area index, but are unique in terms of building and green‐space layout.
