Large eddy simulation of trade wind cumulus clouds

A large eddy simulation model has been extended with an equation for the total water specific humidity and a condensation scheme in order to simulate the partly cloudy convective boundary layer. It is shown that the layer-averaged fluxes and variances within the cloud layer are related to the amount...
