TL;DR: In this paper, the authors simulated over one hundred days over very large domains with fine (0.156 km to 2.5 km) grid spacing for realistic conditions to test the hypothesis that storm resolving simulations would provide an improved representation of clouds and precipitation in atmospheric simulations.

TL;DR: The North Atlantic Waveguide and Downstream Impact Experiment (NAWDEX) explored the impact of diabatic processes on disturbances of the jet stream and their influence on downstream high-impact weather through the deployment of four research aircraft, each with a sophisticated set of remote-sensing and in situ instruments, and coordinated with a suite of ground-based measurements as discussed by the authors.

TL;DR: The recent EUREC$^4$A campaign as discussed by the authors was a turning point in our ability to study factors influencing clouds in the trades, how they will respond to warming, and their link to other components of the earth system, such as upper ocean processes or the life cycle of particulate matter.

TL;DR: In this paper, a configuration of the High-Altitude Long-Range Research Aircraft (HALO) as a remote sensing cloud observatory is described, and its use is illustrated with results from the first and second flights.

TL;DR: A multi-sensor cloud mask product is derived and quantifies the incidence of clouds observed during the flights of HALO and is compiled into an online book "How to EUREC4A", included as an asset with this paper.
