Understanding the Response of Tropical Ascent to Warming Using an Energy Balance Framework
Abstract Previous work has established that warming is associated with an increase in dry static stability, a weakening of the tropical circulation, and a decrease in the convective mass flux. Using a set of idealized simulations with specified surface warming and superparameterized convection, we f...
