Subgrid-scale variability in clear-sky relative humidity and forcing by aerosol–radiation interactions in an atmosphere model

Atmosphere models with resolutions of several tens of kilometres take subgrid-scale variability in the total specific humidity <i>q</i><sub>t</sub> into account by using a uniform probability density function (PDF) to predict fractional cloud cover. However, usually only m...
