Quantifying Parametric Uncertainty Effects on Tropical Cloud Fraction in an AGCM

Quantifying Parametric Uncertainty Effects on Tropical Cloud Fraction in an AGCM

Abstract The underestimation of cloud fraction, especially the low stratus cloud (LSC) fraction over the eastern oceans, remains a problem in most atmospheric global climate models. This study investigated potential improvements through perturbing nine moist physical parameters, using uniform sampli...
