A Lagrangian perspective on the lifecycle and cloud radiative effect of deep convective clouds over Africa
The anvil clouds of tropical deep convection have large radiative effects in both the shortwave (SW) and longwave (LW) spectra with the average magnitudes of both over 100 Wm−2 . Despite this, due to the opposite sign of these fluxes, the net average of the anvil cloud radiative effect (CRE) over th...
