RISThe Measurement and Parameterization of Effective Radius of Droplets in Warm Stratocumulus Clouds
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Observations from the Meteorological Research Flight's Hercules C-130 aircraft of the microphysical characteristics of warm stratocumulus clouds have been analyzed to investigate the variation of the effective radius of ...
A New Boundary Layer Mixing Scheme. Part II: Tests in Climate and Mesoscale Models
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: A new turbulent mixing scheme, described in Part I of this paper, is tested in the climate and mesoscale configurations of the U.K. Met. Office?s Unified Model (UM). In climate configuration, the scheme is implemented along ...

A New Boundary Layer Mixing Scheme. Part I: Scheme Description and Single-Column Model Tests
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: A new boundary layer turbulent mixing scheme has been developed for use in the UKMO weather forecasting and climate prediction models. This includes a representation of nonlocal mixing (driven by both surface fluxes and ...
The Physical Properties of the Atmosphere in the New Hadley Centre Global Environmental Model (HadGEM1). Part I: Model Description and Global Climatology
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The atmospheric component of the new Hadley Centre Global Environmental Model (HadGEM1) is described and an assessment of its mean climatology presented. HadGEM1 includes substantially improved representations of physical ...
Observations of the Interaction between Cumulus Clouds and Warm Stratocumulus Clouds in the Marine Boundary Layer during ASTEX
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Decoupling of the marine boundary layer beneath stratocumulus clouds and the formation of cumulus clouds at the top of a surface-based mixed layer (SML) have frequently been observed and modeled. When such cumulus clouds ...
Analysis and Reduction of Systematic Errors through a Seamless Approach to Modeling Weather and Climate
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The reduction of systematic errors is a continuing challenge for model development. Feedbacks and compensating errors in climate models often make finding the source of a systematic error difficult. In this paper, it is ...
The Physical Properties of the Atmosphere in the New Hadley Centre Global Environmental Model (HadGEM1). Part II: Aspects of Variability and Regional Climate
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The performance of the atmospheric component of the new Hadley Centre Global Environmental Model (HadGEM1) is assessed in terms of its ability to represent a selection of key aspects of variability in the Tropics and ...
U.K. HiGEM: The New U.K. High-Resolution Global Environment Model—Model Description and Basic Evaluation
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: This article describes the development and evaluation of the U.K.?s new High-Resolution Global Environmental Model (HiGEM), which is based on the latest climate configuration of the Met Office Unified Model, known as the ...
