Congestus Mode Invigoration by Convective Aggregation in Simulations of Radiative‐Convective Equilibrium [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Advances in Modeling Earth Systems, 2022
This study examines how the congestus mode of tropical convection is expressed in numerical simulations of radiative‐convective equilibrium (RCE). We draw insights from the ensemble of cloud‐resolving models participating in the RCE Model Intercomparison

Radiative–convective equilibrium model intercomparison project [PDF]

open access: yesGeoscientific Model Development, 2018
RCEMIP, an intercomparison of multiple types of models configured in radiative–convective equilibrium (RCE), is proposed. RCE is an idealization of the climate system in which there is a balance between radiative cooling of the atmosphere and heating ...

Increases in moist‐convective updraught velocities with warming in radiative‐convective equilibrium [PDF]

open access: yesQuarterly Journal of the Royal Meteorological Society, 2015
The scaling of updraught velocities over a wide range of surface temperatures is investigated in simulations of radiative‐convective equilibrium with a cloud‐system resolving model. The updraught velocities increase with warming, with the largest fractional increases occurring in the upper troposphere and for the highest percentile updraughts.

Temperature‐Dependence of the Clear‐Sky Feedback in Radiative‐Convective Equilibrium [PDF]

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, 2021
Abstract We quantify the temperature‐dependence of the clear‐sky climate sensitivity in a one‐dimensional radiative‐convective equilibrium model. The atmosphere is adjusted to fixed surface temperatures between 280 and 330 K while preserving other boundary conditions in particular the relative humidity and the CO

Properties, Changes, and Controls of Deep‐Convecting Clouds in Radiative‐Convective Equilibrium

open access: yesJournal of Advances in Modeling Earth Systems, 2022
Changes in tropical high clouds associated with deep convection with warming are one of the largest sources of uncertainty in climate feedbacks. Here, we leverage an ensemble of models of many types in an idealized configuration to investigate how and ...

Fine Vertical Resolution Radiative‐Convective Equilibrium Experiments: Roles of Turbulent Mixing on the High‐Cloud Response to Sea Surface Temperatures

open access: yesJournal of Advances in Modeling Earth Systems, 2019
In this study, the vertical resolution dependency of the high‐cloud fraction response on the increase in sea surface temperature was investigated via radiative‐convective equilibrium simulations.

Modulation of the Bifurcation in Radiative‐Convective Equilibrium by Gray‐Zone Cloud and Turbulence Parameterizations

open access: yesJournal of Advances in Modeling Earth Systems, 2021
This study investigates the mechanisms by which small‐scale turbulence and cloud physics determine the organization of large‐scale convection in radiative‐convective equilibrium (RCE), an idealization of the tropical atmosphere.
