Modeling the Formation of Clouds in Brown Dwarf Atmospheres [PDF]

, 2002
Because the opacity of clouds in substellar mass object (SMO) atmospheres depends on the composition and distribution of particle sizes within the cloud, a credible cloud model is essential for accurately modeling SMO spectra and colors. We present a one-

Internal Ocean‐Atmosphere Variability in Kilometer‐Scale Radiative‐Convective Equilibrium

Journal of Advances in Modeling Earth Systems
We describe internal, low‐frequency variability in a 21‐year simulation with a cloud‐resolving model. The model domain is the length of the equatorial Pacific and includes a slab ocean, which permits coherent cycles of sea surface temperature (SST ...

Convection On the Edge

Journal of Advances in Modeling Earth Systems, 2019
Deep convection over tropical oceans often appears intensified at the edge of convectively active regions, both in idealized studies and in observations.

Linear Solar Models

, 2009
We present a new approach to study the properties of the sun. We consider small variations of the physical and chemical properties of the sun with respect to Standard Solar Model predictions and we linearize the structure equations to relate them to the ...

Self‐Aggregation of Convective Clouds With Interactive Sea Surface Temperature

Journal of Advances in Modeling Earth Systems, 2020
This study investigates the feedbacks between an interactive sea surface temperature (SST) and the self‐aggregation of deep convective clouds, using a cloud‐resolving model in nonrotating radiative‐convective equilibrium.

Thermal Structure and Radius Evolution of Irradiated Gas Giant Planets

, 2006
We consider the thermal structure and radii of strongly irradiated gas giant planets over a range in mass and irradiating flux. The cooling rate of the planet is sensitive to the surface boundary condition, which depends on the detailed manner in which ...

RCEMIP‐ACI: Aerosol‐Cloud Interactions in a Multimodel Ensemble of Radiative‐Convective Equilibrium Simulations

Journal of Advances in Modeling Earth Systems
Aerosol‐cloud interactions are a persistent source of uncertainty in climate research. This study presents findings from a model intercomparison project examining the impact of aerosols on clouds and climate in convection‐permitting radiative‐convective ...

Sensitivity of Radiative‐Convection Equilibrium to Divergence Damping in GFDL‐FV3‐Based Cloud‐Resolving Model Simulations

Journal of Advances in Modeling Earth Systems, 2018
Using a nonhydrostatic model based on a version of Geophysical Fluid Dynamics Laboratory's FV3 dynamical core at a cloud‐resolving resolution in radiative‐convective equilibrium (RCE) configuration, the sensitivity of the mean RCE climate to the ...

Quantifying Convective Aggregation Using the Tropical Moist Margin's Length

Journal of Advances in Modeling Earth Systems, 2020
On small scales, the tropical atmosphere tends to be either moist or very dry. This defines two states that, on large scales, are separated by a sharp margin, well identified by the antimode of the bimodal tropical column water vapor distribution ...
