Published in 2019 at "Journal of Advances in Modeling Earth Systems"

DOI: 10.1029/2018ms001448

Abstract: This is the second of two large‐eddy simulation studies on the mechanisms of mesoscale cellular organization in drizzling (open cells) and nondrizzling marine stratocumulus (closed cells). This study uses a hard nudging approach which maintains… read more here.

Published in 2021 at "Journal of Geophysical Research"

DOI: 10.1029/2020jd033527

Abstract: 24 Marine stratocumulus clouds contribute significantly to the Earth’s radiation budget due 25 to their extensive coverage and high albedo. Yet, subgrid variability in cloud properties 26 such as aerosol concentration, droplet number and precipitation… read more here.
