Impact of Precipitating Ice Hydrometeors on Longwave Radiative Effect Estimated by a Global Cloud‐System Resolving Model

Abstract Satellite observation and general circulation model (GCM) studies suggest that precipitating ice makes nonnegligible contributions to the radiation balance of the Earth. However, in most GCMs, precipitating ice is diagnosed and its radiative effects are not taken into account. Here we exami...
