Impact of Moist Thermodynamic Formulations on Climatological Temperature Fields in a Global Cloud‐Resolving Model

Journal of Advances in Modeling Earth Systems, Volume 18, Issue 6, June 2026.
Abstract This study investigates how climatological temperature fields in simulations are influenced by the choice of moist thermodynamic formulations. Two formulations were compared: one developed to ensure internal thermodynamic consistency, and a simpler approximation similar to those commonly used in meteorological and climate models.

Responses to Humidity and Temperature Perturbations in High‐Resolution Simulations of Convection

Journal of Advances in Modeling Earth Systems, Volume 18, Issue 4, April 2026.
Abstract Convection parameterization is a leading source of uncertainty in global and regional climate models, and a lack of ground truth complicates the assessment of convection scheme performance. Here we test a linear framework for quantifying convective responses, using two models run at convection‐permitting resolution, to examine model responses ...

No “Wet Gets Wetter” in Kilometer‐Scale Mock‐Walker Circulations

AGU Advances, Volume 7, Issue 1, February 2026.
Abstract Many climate model simulations and limited observations indicate that regions of tropical ascent and precipitation contract in response to surface warming. This response has well‐studied implications for the width of the zonal‐ and annual‐mean Intertropical Convergence Zone, but its applicability to zonally asymmetric circulations such as the ...

Diurnal Variability Modulates Episodic Convection in Hothouse Climates Over Ocean and Swamp‐Like Surface Conditions

Journal of Advances in Modeling Earth Systems, Volume 18, Issue 2, February 2026.
Abstract Hot and moist “hothouse” climates occurred in Earth's past and are expected in Earth's far future climate, driven by increasing solar luminosity. In hothouse climate regimes, precipitation transitions from a quasi‐steady state, as in present‐day tropical convection, to an “episodic deluge” or relaxation‐oscillator (RO) regime where ...

Convective Self‐Aggregation in Diurnally Oscillating Sea Surface Temperature and Solar Forcing Experiments

Journal of Advances in Modeling Earth Systems, Volume 18, Issue 1, January 2026.
Abstract We have addressed convective self‐aggregation (CSA) in steady and oscillating sea surface temperature (SST) and solar radiation (SOLIN) cloud‐resolving model simulations in a non‐rotating radiative‐convective equilibrium (RCE) framework. Our experiment designs are motivated by land‐ocean heterogeneity of atmospheric convection.

High Performance, High Fidelity: A GPU‐Accelerated Doubly‐Periodic Configuration of the Simple Cloud‐Resolving E3SM Atmosphere Model Version 1 (DP‐SCREAMv1)

Journal of Advances in Modeling Earth Systems, Volume 17, Issue 11, November 2025.
Abstract The development of the Simplified Cloud Resolving Energy Exascale Earth System Atmosphere Model (SCREAMv1) enables global storm‐resolving simulations on modern GPU‐based supercomputers. However, the high computational cost of SCREAMv1 limits its routine use for process‐level studies, creating a need for efficient proxy configurations.

Why Idealized Models Are More Important Than Ever in Earth System Science

AGU Advances, Volume 6, Issue 4, August 2025.
Abstract Simulating the Earth system is crucial for studying Earth's climate and how it changes. Modeling approaches that simplify the Earth system while retaining key characteristics are important tools to advance understanding. The simplicity and flexibility of idealized models enables imaginative science and makes them powerful educational tools ...

Estimates of the Global Clear‐Sky Longwave Radiative Feedback Strength From Reanalysis Data

Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 52, Issue 7, 16 April 2025.
Abstract We use atmospheric profiles from ERA5, JRA55, and MERRA2 between 1993 and 2023 to estimate Earth's global clear‐sky longwave feedback strength on the seasonal and interannual timescale. Differences in the relationship of relative humidity with skin temperature prior to 2008 lead to interannual feedback strengths between 1.34 Wm−2 K−1 (JRA55 ...
