Why the cloud-radiation interaction ? Cloud-Radiation Interaction Microphysics Macrophysics Environment Surface Radiation Budget Precipitation Surface Radiation Budget Diurnal cycle of SWD & LWD, for summer & winter (SGP) LWP, winter (SGP) LWP at SGP vs. NSA

Model & Observations GEM: Prognostic total cloud water Lateral boundary conditions: ERA40 Prescribed SSTs and ice fraction Horizontal resolution ≈ 42km time step 30 min Observations: ARM-SGP site: 37°N, 97°W, 318 m ARM-NSA site: 71°N, 157°W Microwave radiometer, tipping bucket, radiometers … Average over 3h period for all variables (except precipitation: 3h accumulation) over 7 years ( ) LWP & IWV: removed when precipitation ≥ 0,25mm/3h SGP NSA
