Tropical ozone as an indicator of deep convection

TL;DR: The ozone profile in the tropics is shaped like an S, with a minimum at the surface, a maximum at 330 K (∼6.5 km), another minimum at 345 K ( ∼11.2 km), and a subsequent increase toward the tropopause.
Journal ArticleDOI

Tropical Rainfall and Boundary Layer Moist Entropy

TL;DR: In the Tropics, the variation of rainfall with sea surface temperature (SST) is highly nonlinear as mentioned in this paper, and the tendency for temperatures above the boundary layer to be homogeneous plays an important role in the rapid increase in rainfall near the convective threshold SST.
Journal ArticleDOI

How does cloud-radiative heating over the North Atlantic change with grid spacing, convective parameterization, and microphysics scheme in ICON version 2.1.00?

TL;DR: In this article , a series of simulations with the ICOsahedral Nonhydrostatic Model (ICON) over the North Atlantic using six different grid spacings, parameterized and explicit convection, and one- versus two-moment cloud microphysics.

Reviewer and Editor Responses: “How Does Cloud -Radiative Heating over the North Atlantic Change with Grid Spacing, Convective Parameterization, and Microphysics Scheme?”

TL;DR: In this article , the authors explore the sensitivity of model representation of atmospheric cloud radiative heating profiles over the North Atlantic to changes in grid resolution, atmospheric convection (explicit or parameterized), and microphysics scheme within the ICON model.
