Observational Evidence That Enhanced Subsidence Reduces Subtropical Marine Boundary Layer Cloudiness
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: onventional wisdom suggests that subsidence favors the presence of marine stratus and stratocumulus because regions of enhanced boundary layer cloudiness are observed to climatologically co-occur with regions of enhanced ...
On the Relationships between Subtropical Clouds and Meteorology in Observations and CMIP3 and CMIP5 Models
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: limate models? simulation of clouds over the eastern subtropical oceans contributes to large uncertainties in projected cloud feedback to global warming. Here, interannual relationships of cloud radiative effect and cloud ...
How Has Subtropical Stratocumulus and Associated Meteorology Changed since the 1980s?
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: he importance of low-level cloud feedbacks to climate sensitivity motivates an investigation of how low-level cloud amount and related meteorological conditions have changed in recent decades in subtropical stratocumulus ...
Observational Constraints on the Cloud Feedback Pattern Effect
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Observed Sensitivity of Low-Cloud Radiative Effects to Meteorological Perturbations over the Global Oceans
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Understanding how marine low clouds and their radiative effects respond to changing meteorological conditions is crucial to constrain low-cloud feedbacks to greenhouse warming and internal climate variability. In this ...
