TL;DR: In this article, a global model evaluation project on vertical structure and physical processes of the Madden-Julian oscillation (MJO) was coordinated to reduce deficiencies in representing the MJO in general circulation models.

TL;DR: In this article, an idealized case-study was designed to investigate the modelling of the diurnal cycle of deep precipitating convection over land, which was performed by seven single-column models and three cloud-resolving models.

TL;DR: In this paper, an intercomparison study of midlatitude continental cumulus convection simulated by eight two-dimensional and twothree-dimensional cloud-resolving models (CRMs), driven by observed large-scale advective temperature and moisture tendencies, surface turbulent euxes, and radiative-heating proe les during three sub-periods of the summer 1997 Intensive Observation Period of the US Department of Energy's Atmospheric Radiation Measurement (ARM) program was performed.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors investigate the diurnal cycle and convection during the rainy season in Amazonia and compare single-column models (SCMs) and cloud-resolving models (CRMs).

TL;DR: In this article, the Single Column Model (SCM) part of the Atmospheric Radiation Measurement (ARM)/the Global Energy and Water Cycle Experiment (GEWEX) Cloud System Study (GCSS) joint SCM and Cloud-Resolving Model (CRM) Case 3 intercomparison study, with a focus on evaluation of cumulus parametrizations used in SCMs.
