Abstract Drizzle initiation through the collision and coalescence of cloud droplets plays a crucial role in warm cloud precipitation. Recent theoretical studies suggest that the influence of collisional growth on the droplet size distribution can be quantified by a non‐dimensional drizzle number (Dz).

Abstract Open water in sea ice significantly influences Arctic low‐cloud formation. However, current global climate models (GCMs), constrained by grid‐scale coupling between the atmosphere and surface components, cannot resolve subgrid heat fluxes and clouds contrasts between open water and sea ice, contributing to biases in Arctic low‐cloud ...

Incorporating Particle Settling Enhancement in a Coarse‐Mode Deposition Model
Abstract Dry deposition rates are usually assumed to rely primarily on gravitational settling, with some enhancement due to interactions with surface elements. However, it is known through experiment, theory, and simulation that vertical velocities of particles in turbulent flows can be enhanced by hydrodynamic effects (often referred to as ...

Understanding the Evolution of Global Atmospheric Rivers With a Vapor Kinetic Energy Framework
Abstract Atmospheric rivers (ARs) often cause damaging winds, rainfall, and floods. However, the physical mechanisms governing their evolution remain poorly understood. To close this gap, we perform a global Vapor Kinetic Energy (VKE) budget analysis. Using two formulations of VKE, we show that ARs are governed by similar mechanisms regardless of ocean
