RCEMIP-II: mock-Walker simulations as phase II of the radiative–convective equilibrium model intercomparison project [PDF]
The radiative–convective equilibrium (RCE) model intercomparison project (RCEMIP) leveraged the simplicity of RCE to focus attention on moist convective processes and their interactions with radiation and circulation across a wide range of model types ...

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

Competing Effect of Radiative and Moisture Feedback in Convective Aggregation States in Two CRMs
The radiative‐convective equilibrium (RCE) of two models exhibiting convective aggregation has been compared. The goal of the work, following the suggestion from the RCE Model Intercomparison Project (RCEMIP), is to identify key parameters controlling ...

Effects of Circulation on Tropical Cloud Feedbacks in High‐Resolution Simulations
Uncertainty in the response of clouds to global warming remains a significant barrier to reducing uncertainty in climate sensitivity. A key question is the extent to which the dynamic component—that which is due to changes in circulation rather than ...

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