Isolating the contribution of local and non-local shortwave flux biases towards climatological sea surface temperature biases within a coupled climate model Coupled climate models suffer from persistent climatological biases in sea surface temperature (SST). The exact causes of these biases are often difficult to diagnose given the complex oceanatmosphere...

Constraining a Radiative Transfer Model with Satellite Retrievals: Contrasts between cirrus formed via homogeneous and heterogeneous freezing and their implications for cirrus cloud thinning Abstract. The efficacy of the climate intervention method known as cirrus cloud thinning (CCT) is difficult to evaluate in climate models, largely due to uncertainties governing the relative contribut...

Happy to announce our book chapter, Cirrus Cloud Thinning (CCT), is now published! 📖☁️

We discuss the need for a better representation of cirrus cloud processes in models to validate CCT efficacy.
