Sensitivity of flower trade‐wind cloud organisation to mesoscale atmospheric heterogeneities

Quarterly Journal of the Royal Meteorological Society, EarlyView.
Trade‐wind cloud organisation is insensitive to dynamical and thermal heterogeneities but very sensitive to humidity mesoscale heterogeneities, especially in the cloud layer, where they form moist patches, and not in the sub‐cloud layer. Clouds and rain develop in moist patches, then cold pools develop progressively, initiating mesoscale circulations ...

Present and future downslope windstorms in the Scandinavian Mountains from a kilometre‐scale climate model

Quarterly Journal of the Royal Meteorological Society, EarlyView.
Kilometre‐scale climate simulations for Scandinavia indicate the importance of high resolution for reproducing downslope windstorms (DWs). Scandinavian DWs on average induce a limited local warming but with large variability due to the region's complex orography.

Polar‐low track prediction using machine‐learning methods

Quarterly Journal of the Royal Meteorological Society, EarlyView.
Machine‐learning models are developed to produce reliable and efficient forecasts of polar‐low (PL) trajectories 12 hours ahead. A temporal model (RLSTM) benefiting from the rolling‐forecast strategy, improves overall prediction accuracy and is suitable for quick experimentation, while a spatiotemporal model (PL‐UNet), incorporating both historical and

Towards operational assimilation of surface‐sensitive microwave radiances over land at Environment and Climate Change Canada: Investigation of key factors using a 1D‐EnVar framework

Quarterly Journal of the Royal Meteorological Society, EarlyView.
The study evaluates five factors affecting the assimilation of surface‐sensitive Advanced Microwave Sounding Unit‐A (AMSU‐A) radiances over land, including the simultaneous estimation of surface emissivity and the standard set of state variables, to improve numerical weather prediction (NWP) at Environment and Climate Change Canada (ECCC).

Evaluating the realism of double moment parameterised particle size distributions in a midlatitude frontal ice cloud with complex microphysics

Quarterly Journal of the Royal Meteorological Society, EarlyView.
Uncertainties in the representation of ice particle size distributions (PSDs) cause inaccuracies in parameterisations of clouds. In this study, observed PSDs from a midlatitude frontal case study are compared with gamma PSDs with the same concentration and ice water content.
