WATER VAPOR AND THE DYNAMICS OF CLIMATE CHANGES (2009, background): “, Graham and Barnett, 1987; Folkins and Braun, 2003], there is no justification for using the same threshold temperature for inferences about convection in changed climates: to the extent that such a threshold temperature exists, it may change as the climate changes and with it the large‐scale tropi”
An Idealized Semi-Empirical Framework for Modeling the Madden–Julian Oscillation (2012, background): “The relationship between precipitation and column water vapor is the subject of both theoretical and observational work (Raymond 2000; Bretherton et al. 2004; Peters and Neelin 2006; Neelin et al. 2009), and it has been suggested that the simulation of the MJO in global models is sensitive to it (Be”
Earth System Modeling 2.0: A Blueprint for Models That Learn From Observations and Targeted High‐Resolution Simulations (2017, background): “But how they depend on state variables is uncertain, as is the structure of the closure equations in which they appear (e.g., de Rooy et al., 2013; Holloway & Nee, 2009; Neelin et al., 2009; Nie & Kuang, 2012; Romps & Kuang, 2010; Stainforth et al., 2005).”
CORRIGENDUM of the MJO Transition from Shallow to Deep Convection in Cloudsat-Calipso Data and GISS GCM Simulations (2012, background): “Among the mechanisms proposed are self-organized criticality as occurs in continuous phase transitions (Neelin et al. 2009), a threshold boundary layer water vapor value for precipitation combined with independently varying boundary layer and free troposphere humidity (Muller et al. 2009), and…”
Factors controlling the position of the Intertropical Convergence Zone on an aquaplanet (2012, background): “Although it is thought that variations in column relative humidity track those in the lower (between 850 and 550 hPa) troposphere, which have been shown to correlate more strongly with convective events [Neelin et al., 2009; Holloway and Neelin, 2009; Nuijens et al., 2009], it makes sense to look at”
