Changes in the Tropical Lapse Rate due to Entrainment and Their Impact on Climate Sensitivity
(Geophysical Research Letters, 2021-09-16)The tropical temperature in the free troposphere deviates from a theoretical moist‐adiabat. The overall deviations are attributed to the entrainment of dry surrounding air. The deviations gradually approach zero in the ... -
Competing Effects of Droplet Sedimentation and Wind Shear on Entrainment in Stratocumulus
(Journal of Advances in Modeling Earth Systems, 2019)The joint effect of droplet sedimentation and wind shear on cloud top entrainment in stratocumulus is investigated with direct numerical simulations. Although it is well understood that droplet sedimentation weakens ... -
Modelling and parametrization of the convective flow over leads in sea ice and comparison with airborne observations
(Quarterly Journal of the Royal Meteorological Society, 2021-02-07)A non‐eddy‐resolving microscale model is applied to simulate convection over three different leads (elongated channels in sea ice), which were observed by aircraft over the Arctic Marginal Ice Zone in 2013. The study aims ... -
The Vertical Structure and Entrainment of Subglacial Melt Water Plumes
(Journal of Advances in Modeling Earth Systems, 2022-03-14)Basal melting of marine‐terminating glaciers, through its impact on the forces that control the flow of the glaciers, is one of the major factors determining sea level rise in a world of global warming. Detailed quantitative ...
