• The Formation of Wider and Deeper Clouds as a Result of Cold-Pool Dynamics (2014, background): “Thus, parameterization schemes struggle to accurately represent the diurnal cycle of convection in global climate models (e.g., Betts and Jakob 2002; Bechtold et al. 2004).”
• Diurnal cycle of convection, clouds, and water vapor in the tropical upper troposphere: Satellites versus a general circulation model (2004, methodology): “Thus comparisons of the diurnal cycle between observations and a GCM represent a powerful tool for evaluating the GCM performance and identifying the model’s deficiencies [e.g., Slingo et al., 1987; Randall et al., 1991; Lin et al., 2000; Yang and Slingo, 2001; Betts and Jakob, 2002; Dai and Trenb”
• High-Resolution Simulation of Shallow-to-Deep Convection Transition over Land (2006, background): “It is well known that general circulation models (GCMs) with parameterized convection have considerable difficulty in representing the diurnal cycle of convection and precipitation over the summertime continents (e.g., Betts and Jakob 2002; Bechtold et al. 2004).”
• A Dual Mass Flux Framework for Boundary Layer Convection. Part I: Transport (2009, background): “Evaluation against observations at the Southern Great Plains (SGP) site of the Atmospheric Radiation Measurement (ARM) program (Stokes and Schwartz, 1994; Ackerman and Stokes, 2003) has revealed that the occurrence of summertime shallow cumulus is underestimated (Cheinet, 2004), and that the onset o”
• Influence of the subcloud layer on the development of a deep convective ensemble (2012, background): “…prediction (NWP) and climate models is largely determined by the availability of CAPE, deep convection develops too early in these models, leading to a systematic bias in a too-early onset of precipitation in the diurnal cycle (Betts and Jakob 2002; Guichard et al. 2004; Bechtold et al. 2006).”
• The Role of Entrainment in the Diurnal Cycle of Continental Convection (2010, unknown): “This is true of both climate models (Dai 2006) and numerical weather prediction models (Betts and Jakob 2002; Janowiak et al. 2007).”
