• The Met Office Global Coupled Model 3.0 and 3.1 (GC3.0 and GC3.1) Configurations (2017, background): “This improvement in the LW surface flux is due to work having been done to increase low cloud amounts, reducing a bias over the region (Bodas-Salcedo et al., 2012).”
• The Transpose-AMIP II Experiment and Its Application to the Understanding of Southern Ocean Cloud Biases in Climate Models (2012, background): “This is a common of the cyclone away from fronts is consistent with the findings of Bodas-Salcedo et al. (2012) when examining the Met Office model, and a bias being associated with transient ridges consistent is consistent with Norris and Weaver (2001).”
• Improved Aerosol Processes and Effective Radiative Forcing in HadGEM3 and UKESM1 (2018, background): “Such large biases in the Southern Ocean lead to significant warm sea surface temperature biases in this region when coupled to an ocean model (Bodas-Salcedo et al., 2012; Hyder et al., 2018).”
• On the Representation of High-Latitude Boundary Layer Mixed-Phase Cloud in the ECMWF Global Model (2014, background): “The sensitivity of the shortwave to supercooled liquid water in this region has been suggested by others (e.g., Bodas-Salcedo et al. 2012), but the impact is quantified here, highlighting the need to have a realistic representation of mixed-phase clouds, the need to characterize these clouds from…”
• Opinion: Cloud-phase climate feedback and the importance of ice-nucleating particles (2020, background): “There are wellknown model biases in the Southern Ocean with too much SW radiation making it to the surface due to shallow clouds not being sufficiently reflective (Bodas-Salcedo et al., 2012; Trenberth and Fasullo, 2010).”
• Large contribution of supercooled liquid clouds to the solar radiation budget of the Southern Ocean (2016, methodology): “Large solar radiation biases present in climate models over the Southern Ocean are largely associated with a poor simulation of low- and midlevel clouds (Williams et al. 2013; Bodas-Salcedo et al. 2012, 2014).”
• Connections Between Clouds, Radiation, and Midlatitude Dynamics: a Review (2015, background): “This question is of particular interest in the Southern midlatitudes, where a majority of CMIP5 models tend to underestimate the amount of reflected shortwave radiation [6, 22, 36].”
• The Cloud Feedback Model Intercomparison Project (CFMIP) contribution to CMIP6. (2016, background): “High-frequency model outputs (daily, 3-hourly) are aimed at a process-oriented evaluation (e.g. Bodas-Salcedo et al., 2012) and offer the opportunity to exploit the synergy between multiple instruments (e.g. Konsta et al., 2015).”
