Insights on Tropical High‐Cloud Radiative Effect From a New Conceptual Model

Abstract The new capabilities of global storm‐resolving models to resolve individual clouds allow for a more physical perspective on the tropical high‐cloud radiative effect and how it might change with warming. In this study, we develop a conceptual model of the high‐cloud radiative effect as a fun...
