Tropical Cirrus in Global Storm‐Resolving Models: 1. Role of Deep Convection

Abstract Pervasive cirrus clouds in the upper troposphere and tropical tropopause layer (TTL) influence the climate by altering the top‐of‐atmosphere radiation balance and stratospheric water vapor budget. These cirrus are often associated with deep convection, which global climate models must param...
