Cloud and Precipitation Profiling Radars: The First Combined W- and K-Band Radar Profiler Measurements in Italy

Sensors, 2023
Clouds cover substantial parts of the Earth’s surface and they are one of the most essential components of the global climate system impacting the Earth’s radiation balance as well as the water cycle redistributing water around the globe as precipitation.

Robust Evaluation of ENSO in Climate Models: How Many Ensemble Members Are Needed?

Geophysical Research Letters, 2021
Large ensembles of model simulations require considerable resources, and thus defining an appropriate ensemble size for a particular application is an important experimental design criterion.

Climate Modeling [PDF]

Annual Review of Environment and Resources, 2008
Climate models simulate the atmosphere, given atmospheric composition and energy from the sun, and include explicit modeling of, and exchanges with, the underlying oceans, sea ice, and land. The models are based on physical principles governing momentum, thermodynamics, cloud microphysics, radiative transfer, and turbulence.
