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.

A new method to identify and explain sources of precipitation modification, illustrated for the western Netherlands

Quarterly Journal of the Royal Meteorological Society, EarlyView.
This study develops a method to identify the source areas of precipitation events, as illustrated for the western part of the Netherlands. Radar‐based precipitation data are traced back to their source areas and machine‐learning techniques are used to identify hypothesized causes: urban heat, surface roughness, and air pollution. We find that urban and

Stratospheric and tropospheric seasonality and its implications for observation requirements in numerical weather prediction

Quarterly Journal of the Royal Meteorological Society, EarlyView.
Daily time series of zonal‐mean zonal wind (m·s−1) at 10 hPa and 60° N from 1950 to 2021 from the ERA5 reanalysis. This shows huge variability in some seasons and very little in others. We provide evidence that high‐level observations, radiosonde and satellite, are more important during the extended winter season with its very large variability ...

An opportunity index to anticipate when subseasonal predictions are useful

Quarterly Journal of the Royal Meteorological Society, EarlyView.
Simultaneously active subseasonal windows of forecast opportunity can be combined into a single opportunity index, which can be used operationally to anticipate enhanced or reduced subseasonal prediction skill. For predictions of temperature anomalies in Switzerland during summer—a region and season with particularly low predictability—skill can nearly
