Realistic representation of mixed-phase clouds increases projected climate warming
S. Hofer, L. C. Hahn, et al.
This groundbreaking research conducted by Stefan Hofer and colleagues reveals that mixed-phase clouds around the globe contain more liquid water at their tops than in their interiors. By integrating this vital observation into the NorESM2 climate model, the team predicts an additional +1 °C rise in 21st-century warming, underscoring the critical need for accurate cloud phase representation in climate projections.
