The indirect shortwave effect of anthropogenic sulfate aerosol augmentation in marine stratocumulus clouds has been evaluated using global cloud climatology, sulfate aerosol data from a chemical model, and cloud albedo augmentation. The hemispheric forcing has a strong seasonal cycle with the Northern Hemisphere (NH) forcing exceeding the Southern Hemisphere (SH) forcing during the NH spring and...
Based on the simulations with a 3-D large-eddy simulation model of marine cloud-topped boundary layer that includes explicit cloud physics formulation, we have evaluated the effect of spatial inhomogeneities in cloud macro- and microstructure on the performance of parameterizations of optical depth commonly used in large-scale models. We have shown that an accurate parameterization of the grid average...
