Abstract Purpose of Review Global cloud-resolving models (GCRMs) are a new type of
atmospheric model which resolve nonhydrostatic accelerations globally with kilometer-scale …

This article reviews the development of a global non-hydrostatic model, focusing on the
pioneering research of the Non-hydrostatic Icosahedral Atmospheric Model (NICAM). Very …

NICAM, a nonhydrostatic global atmospheric model with an icosahedral grid system, has
been developed for nearly two decades. This paper describes NICAM16-S, the latest stable …

Cloud microphysics of deep convective systems over the tropical central Pacific simulated by
a cloud system–resolving model using satellite simulators are evaluated in terms of the joint …

Global cloud resolving models (GCRMs) are a new type of general circulation model that
explicitly calculates the growth of cloud systems with fine spatial resolutions and more than …

Evaluations of the Thermodynamic Phases of Clouds in a Cloud-System-Resolving Model Using
CALIPSO and a Satellite Simulator over the Southern Ocean in: Journal of the Atmospheric …

Understanding aerosol effects on deep convective clouds and the derived effects on the
radiation budget and rain patterns can largely contribute to estimations of climate …

In estimates of climate sensitivity obtained from global models, the need to represent clouds
introduces a great deal of uncertainty. To address this issue, approaches using a high …

Clouds are the primary source of uncertainty in the prediction of climate change. To reduce
the uncertainty of cloud simulations and overcome this difficulty in prediction, many climate …

Abstract Evaluation of cloud radiative effects (CREs) in global atmospheric models is of vital
importance to reduce uncertainties in weather forecasting and future climate projection. In …
