• A New Moist Turbulence Parameterization in the Community Atmosphere Model (2009, methodology): “5 single-column results (except for explicitly labeled sensitivity tests) use a model version with identical physical parameterizations to those used in the global simulations of Park and Bretherton (2009).”
• A Description of the Advanced Research WRF Model Version 4 (2019, methodology): “For this modified vertical coordinate, we employ a hybrid sigma-pressure vertical coordinate as described by Park et al. (2013), which is similar to that used in the National Center for Atmospheric Research (NCAR) Community Atmospheric Model (CAM),as described in the NCAR CAM3.”
• Higher-Order Turbulence Closure and Its Impact on Climate Simulations in the Community Atmosphere Model (2013, methodology): “Recall that in CAM–CLUBB the Park and Bretherton (2009) shallow convection scheme is turned off and therefore all shallow convective precipitation is zero everywhere and the stratiform MGmicrophysics scheme is responsible for shallow convective precipitation.”
• Toward a Minimal Representation of Aerosols in Climate Models: Comparative Decomposition of Aerosol Direct, Semidirect, and Indirect Radiative Forcing (2012, methodology): “The treatment of shallow cumulus clouds is described by Park and Bretherton (2009).”
• Parameterizing Convective Organization to Escape the Entrainment Dilemma (2011, methodology): “We chose to work with the Bretherton et al. (2004) plume model, as implemented in the Community Atmosphere Model (CAM5), where it is called the University of Washington (UW) ‘‘shallow’’ convection scheme ( Park and Bretherton 2009, PB09).”
• Exposing Global Cloud Biases in the Community Atmosphere Model (CAM) Using Satellite Observations and Their Corresponding Instrument Simulators (2012, methodology): “Shallow convection Mass flux scheme with convective inhibition (CIN) closure (Park and Bretherton 2009) Three-level adjustment of moist static energy (Hack 1994) Deep convection Bulk mass flux with CAPE closure (Neale et al.”
• Evaluating hydrological processes in the Community Atmosphere Model Version 5 (CAM5) using stable isotope ratios of water (2017, methodology): “The water vapor isotopic tendency for the shallow convection [Park and Bretherton, 2009] is: @qi @t 5 2g @ @p M qti2qtieð Þ1Mpen qtipen2qtie 2Pi1Epi2 @Li @t 2 @Ii @t (13) where M is the convective mass flux, Mpen is the penetrative entrainment mass flux, Li is the isotopic cloud liquid, Ii is the…”
• Advanced Two-Moment Bulk Microphysics for Global Models. Part II: Global Model Solutions and Aerosol–Cloud Interactions* (2015, methodology): “CLUBB replaces the standard boundary layer (Bretherton and Park 2009), large-scale condensation (macrophysics), and shallow cumulus scheme (Park and Bretherton 2009) in the standard version of CAM5.”
• Climate impacts of ice nucleation (2012, methodology): “The velocity is derived from the Turbulent Kinetic Energy (TKE) scheme [Park and Bretherton, 2009].”
• The Evolution of Climate Sensitivity and Climate Feedbacks in the Community Atmosphere Model (2012, background): “CAM5 contains an updated moist boundary layer (Bretherton and Park 2009) and shallow cumulus convection scheme (Park and Bretherton 2009) that improves the simulation of low clouds (Neale et al. 2010).”
