Spatial statistics of marine boundary layer clouds
[1] An analysis is presented of the structure functions and scalar spectra for 25 satellitederived marine stratocumulus cloud optical depth fields. The scenes, which cover a horizontal domain of 58 58 km at a resolution of 28.5 m, are partitioned into two ensembles on the basis of cloud fraction. For the fully cloudy scenes, although there is wide scene-to-scene variability, both the average is...

متن کاملEvaluation of the WRF PBL parameterizations for marine boundary layer clouds: Cumulus and stratocumulus
1 The performance of five boundary layer parameterizations in the Weather 2 Research and Forecasting model is examined for marine boundary layer cloud regions 3 using a single column model version of the WRF model. Most parameterizations show a 4 poor agreement of the vertical boundary layer structure when compared with Large-Eddy 5 Simulation models. These comparisons against Large-Eddy Simula...
متن کاملMarine boundary layer clouds at the heart of tropical cloud feedback uncertainties in climate models
[1] The radiative response of tropical clouds to global warming exhibits a large spread among climate models, and this constitutes a major source of uncertainty for climate sensitivity estimates. To better interpret the origin of that uncertainty, we analyze the sensitivity of the tropical cloud radiative forcing to a change in sea surface temperature that is simulated by 15 coupled models simu...
