Explicitly Resolved Cloud Feedbacks in the Radiative‐Convective Equilibrium Model Intercomparison Project

open access: yesJournal of Advances in Modeling Earth Systems, 2023
Radiative‐convective equilibrium (RCE) is particularly well suited for studying tropical deep‐convection, a regime of clouds that contributes some of the highest uncertainties to the estimates of total cloud feedback.

Understanding the Extreme Spread in Climate Sensitivity within the Radiative‐Convective Equilibrium Model Intercomparison Project

open access: yesJournal of Advances in Modeling Earth Systems, 2020
The Radiative‐Convective Equilibrium Model Intercomparison Project (RCEMIP) consists of simulations at three fixed sea‐surface temperatures (SSTs: 295, 300, and 305 K) and thus allows for a calculation of the climate feedback parameter based on the ...

Cloud‐Radiation Interactions and Their Contributions to Convective Self‐Aggregation

open access: yesJournal of Advances in Modeling Earth Systems, 2021
This study investigates the direct radiative‐convective processes that drive and maintain aggregation within convection‐permitting elongated channel (and smaller square) simulations of the UK Met Office Unified Model. Our simulations are configured using

Control of Stability and Relative Humidity in the Radiative‐Convective Equilibrium Model Intercomparison Project

open access: yesJournal of Advances in Modeling Earth Systems
The Radiative‐Convective Equilibrium Model Intercomparison Project (RCEMIP) exhibits a large spread in the simulated climate across models, including in profiles of buoyancy and relative humidity.

The Impact of Rotation on Tropical Climate, the Hydrologic Cycle, and Climate Sensitivity

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters
This work explores the impact of rotation on tropical convection and climate. As our starting point, we use the RCEMIP experiments as control simulations and run additional simulations with rotation.

Dataset of a kilometer-scale meso-NH simulation for C2OMODO: The RCElarge300 collection of MesoNHforC2OMODOhttps://data.ipsl.fr/repository/MesoNHforC2OMODO/

open access: yesData in Brief
Measuring vertical velocity is essential for understanding deep convection. The Convective Core Observations through MicrOwave Derivatives in the trOpics (C2OMODO) mission will retrieve vertical velocity using ice-sensitive microwave measurements at two ...

SST-driven changes in cloud radiative heating in RCEMIP models and observations

2023
The interactions of ice particles with radiative fluxes in tropical high clouds substantially alter the heating structure within the atmosphere, also known as cloud radiative heating (CRH). CRH influences the upper-tropospheric temperature structure and thus modulates the strength and position of tropical and extratropical circulations.

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

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 "cloud-resolving" Radiative-Convective Equilibrium (RCE) simulations. Specifically, 11 different models conducted RCE simulations under varying
