Developing a Cloud Scheme With Prognostic Cloud Fraction and Two Moment Microphysics for ECHAM‐HAM
Journal of Advances in Modeling Earth Systems, 2020 We present a new cloud scheme for the ECHAM‐HAM global climate model (GCM) that includes prognostic cloud fraction and allows for subsaturation and supersaturation with respect to ice separately in the cloud‐free and cloudy air. Stratiform clouds form by

Is atomic carbon a good tracer of molecular gas in metal-poor galaxies? [PDF]
, 2015 Carbon monoxide (CO) is widely used as a tracer of molecular hydrogen (H2) in metal-rich galaxies, but is known to become ineffective in low metallicity dwarf galaxies.

Remote Sensing, 2022 Layered cloud cover (LCC), that is, cloud cover at different levels, is crucial for estimating cloud radiative effects and modeling climate change. However, accurate LCC characterization using passive satellite measurements is challenging because of the ...

Star formation in the giant HII regions of M101 [PDF]
, 1999 The molecular components of three giant HII regions (NGC 5461, NGC 5462, NGC 5471) in the galaxy M101 are investigated with new observations from the James Clerk Maxwell Telescope, the NRAO 12-meter, and the Owens Valley millimeter array.

On the link between Amazonian forest properties and shallow cumulus cloud fields [PDF]
Atmospheric Chemistry and Physics, 2014 During the dry season the Amazon forest is frequently covered by shallow cumulus clouds fields, referred to here as forest cumulus (FCu). These clouds are shown to be sensitive to land cover and exhibit a high level of spatial organization. In this study

Deep Learning Based Cloud Cover Parameterization for ICON [PDF]
Journal of Advances in Modeling Earth Systems, 2021 AbstractA promising approach to improve cloud parameterizations within climate models and thus climate projections is to use deep learning in combination with training data from storm‐resolving model (SRM) simulations. The ICOsahedral Non‐hydrostatic (ICON) modeling framework permits simulations ranging from numerical weather prediction to climate ...

Important non-local effects of deforestation on cloud cover changes in CMIP6 models
Environmental Research Letters, 2023 Recent satellite and in-situ measurements show that forests can influence regional and global cloud cover through biophysical processes. However, forest’s possible local and non-local impacts on clouds remain unclear.

Distinct response of near surface air temperature to clouds in North China
Atmospheric Science Letters, 2022 Using the daily 2 m maximum temperature (Tmax), 2 m minimum temperature (Tmin) and cloud cover data measured at ground sites of the China Meteorological Administration in North China from 2000 to 2017, this study investigates the influence of clouds on ...
