Simulating precipitation efficiency across the deep convective gray zone
Precipitation efficiency (PE) relates cloud condensation to precipitation and thus reflects how much of the total atmospheric condensate reaches the surface as precipitation....- publication PDF

Vertical Interpolation and Truncation of Model-coordinate Data
This technical note explores the advantages and disadvantages of using global analyses on 1) pressure level surfaces, and 2) model (sigma or hybrid) level surfaces and the...- publication PDF
