Quantifying the limits of convective parameterizations [PDF]
[1] Quasi-equilibrium (QE) closure is an approximation that is expected to apply to a large ensemble of clouds under slowly changing weather conditions. It breaks down under rapidly changing conditions or when the domain size is too small to provide an adequate sample of the cloud field.

Neural‐Network Parameterization of Subgrid Momentum Transport in the Atmosphere
Attempts to use machine learning to develop atmospheric parameterizations have mainly focused on subgrid effects on temperature and moisture, but subgrid momentum transport is also important in simulations of the atmospheric circulation.

Considerations for Stochastic Convective Parameterization [PDF]
Convective parameterizations in general circulation models (GCMs) generally only aim to simulate the mean or first-order moment of convection; higher moments associated with subgrid variability are not explicitly considered. In this study, an empirically based stochastic convective parameterization is developed that uses an assumed mixed lognormal ...

We propose a parameterization scheme of convective organization effects based on a moisture‐distribution approach, which can reflect aggregation of convective cells within a model grid as well as the interaction between convection and spatial ...

A Cloud Model to Parameterize Convection [PDF]
Abstract This paper describes a parameterization of convection developed for use with a multi-level primitive equation model of the atmosphere. This parameterization is similar in form to that of Kuo, who postulates that boundary layer air rises moist adiabatically before mixing with the large-scale flow.

Parameterizing convective organization
Lateral mixing parameters in buoyancy-driven deep convection schemes are among the most sensitive and important unknowns in atmosphere models. Unfortunately, there is not a true optimum value for plume mixing rate, but rather a dilemma or tradeoff: Excessive dilution of updrafts leads to unstable stratification bias in the mean state, while inadequate ...

Uncertainty quantification of ocean parameterizations: application to the K-Profile-Parameterization for penetrative convection [PDF]
Parameterizations of unresolved turbulent processes in the ocean compromise the fidelity of large-scale ocean models used in climate change projections. In this work, we use a Bayesian approach for evaluating and developing turbulence parameterizations by comparing parameterized models with observations or high-fidelity numerical simulations.
