Abstract: A model of the dynamically inactive parts of cumulus cloud (i.e., void of bulk, organized vertical drafts) is proposed. It is assumed that such parts of clouds consist of coarse filaments of saturated, droplet-containing ...

Abstract: The applicability of the Paluch mixing diagram to studies dealing with cumulus entrainment is reexamined. Theoretical considerations are illustrated with the Paluch method applied to numerically simulated entrainment into ...

Abstract: This paper discusses an extension of the approach proposed previously to represent the delay of cloud water evaporation and buoyancy reversal due to the cloud?environment mixing in bulk microphysics large-eddy simulation ...

Abstract: his paper presents the application of a double-moment bulk warm-rain microphysics scheme to the simulation of a field of shallow convective clouds based on Barbados Oceanographic and Meteorological Experiment (BOMEX) ...

Abstract: his paper presents an approach to locally predict homogeneity of the subgrid-scale turbulent mixing in large-eddy simulation of shallow clouds applying double-moment warm-rain microphysics. The homogeneity of subgrid-scale ...

Abstract: AbstractThis paper discusses the effects of cloud turbulence, turbulent entrainment, and entrained cloud condensation nuclei (CCN) activation on the evolution of the cloud droplet size spectrum. We simulate an ensemble of ...

Abstract: The plane-parallel model for the parameterization of clouds in global climate models is examined in order to estimate the effects of the vertical profile of the microphysical parameters on radiative transfer calculations ...
