CPT for Atmospheric Deep Convection (2)

• Needs

  • Dedicated cross-cutting group (3-5 yrs)
  • Explicit funding to support novel diagnostics, coding/testing of improved parameterizations
  • Global modelers identify critical problems related to convection (e.g. split ITCZ, cloud-radiative feedback, diurnal cycle) and set 3–yr goals

• Funding

  • Support scientist at each modeling center doing diagnostics and testing code improvements - responds to entire group
  • Support for process scientists to pursue activities relevant to CPT
  • Travel funding for an annual meeting
