Evaluating Large‐Domain, Hecto‐Meter, Large‐Eddy Simulations of Trade‐Wind Clouds Using EUREC4A Data by Hauke Schulz, Bjorn Stevens

“…Abstract The meso‐scale variability in cloudiness of the marine trade‐wind layer is explored with large‐eddy simulations of regional extent and validated against observations of the EUREC4A field campaign. 41 days of realistically forced simulations present a representative, statistical view on shallow convection in the winter North Atlantic trades that includes a wide range of meso‐scale variability including the four recently identified patterns of spatial organization: Sugar, Gravel, Flowers and Fish. …”

An ongoing cooling in the eastern Pacific linked to eastward migrations of the Southeast Pacific Subtropical Anticyclone by Youjia Zou, Xiangying Xi

“…Most recently, some studies argue that the ongoing cooling in the eastern Pacific is induced by a strengthening of the easterly trade winds. Nevertheless, observational records coming from the monitoring buoys deployed along the equator by NOAA since 1992 indicate that an intensification of the trade winds is only confined to the central tropical Pacific (around 170° E–170° W) during hiatus decades, elsewhere along the equatorial Pacific the trade winds exhibit a stable condition even a slight weakening in the eastern equatorial Pacific, rendering it as a trigger of this cooling in the eastern Pacific unlikely. …”
