Stratosphere-troposphere transport in a numerical simulation of midlatitude convection [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
The transport of stratospheric air deep into the troposphere via convection is investigated numerically using the UK Met Office Unified Model. A convective system that formed on 27 June 2004 near southeast England, in the vicinity an upper level ...

Entrainment Parameterization in Convective Boundary Layers

open access: yesJournal of the Atmospheric Sciences, 1999
Abstract Various runs were performed with a large eddy simulation (LES) model to evaluate different types of entrainment parametrizations. For this evaluation, three types of boundary layers were simulated: a clear convective boundary layer (CBL), a boundary layer containing a smoke concentration, and a cloud-topped boundary layer. It is shown that the

Global climate impacts of stochastic deep convection parameterization in the NCAR CAM5

open access: yesJournal of Advances in Modeling Earth Systems, 2016
In this study, the stochastic deep convection parameterization of Plant and Craig (PC) is implemented in the Community Atmospheric Model version 5 (CAM5) to incorporate the stochastic processes of convection into the Zhang‐McFarlane (ZM) deterministic ...

Effects of Organized Convection Parameterization on the MJO and Precipitation in E3SMv1. Part I: Mesoscale Heating

open access: yesJournal of Advances in Modeling Earth Systems, 2021
Mesoscale organization of convection is typically not represented in global circulation models, and hence its influence on the global circulation is not accounted for. The heating component of a parameterization that represents the dynamical and physical

A new modelling framework for statistical cumulus dynamics [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
We propose a new modelling framework suitable for the description of atmospheric convective systems as a collection of distinct plumes. The literature contains many examples of models for collections of plumes in which strong simplifying assumptions are ...

Parameterization of Stochastically Entraining Convection Using Machine Learning Technique

open access: yesJournal of Advances in Modeling Earth Systems, 2022
A stochastic mixing model with a machine learning technique is proposed for mass flux convection schemes. The model consists of the stochastic differential equations (SDEs) for the fractional entrainment rate, fractional detrainment rate, fractional ...

Earth System Modeling 2.0: A Blueprint for Models That Learn From Observations and Targeted High-Resolution Simulations [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Climate projections continue to be marred by large uncertainties, which originate in processes that need to be parameterized, such as clouds, convection, and ecosystems. But rapid progress is now within reach.

Impact of Interactive Vertical Overlap of Cumulus and Stratus on Global Aerosol, Precipitation, and Radiation Processes in the Seoul National University Atmosphere Model Version 0 With a Unified Convection Scheme (SAM0‐UNICON)

open access: yesJournal of Advances in Modeling Earth Systems, 2019
The previously proposed parameterization for the integrated vertical overlap of cumulus and stratus is generalized to handle both conventional exponential‐random stratus overlap and nonconventional (i.e., other than exponential‐random) cumulus overlap in

Improvement in the Modeled Representation of North American Monsoon Precipitation Using a Modified Kain–Fritsch Convective Parameterization Scheme

open access: yesAtmosphere, 2018
A commonly noted problem in the simulation of warm season convection in the North American monsoon region has been the inability of atmospheric models at the meso-β scales (10 s to 100 s of kilometers) to simulate organized convection, principally ...

Characterizing Convection Schemes Using Their Responses to Imposed Tendency Perturbations

open access: yesJournal of Advances in Modeling Earth Systems, 2021
Convection is usually parameterized in global climate models, and there are often large discrepancies between results obtained with different convection schemes.
