text: Pools of air cooled by partial rain evaporation span up to several hundreds
of kilometers in nature and typically last less than 1 day, ultimately losing
their identity to the large-scale flow. These fundamentally differ in character
from the radiatively-driven dry pools defining convective aggregation. Advancement
in remote sensing and in computer capabilities has promoted exploration of how
precipitation-induced cold pool processes modify the convective spectrum and life
cycle. This contribution surveys current understanding of such cold pools over
the tropical and subtropical oceans. In shallow convection with low rain rates,
the cold pools moisten, preserving the near-surface equivalent potential temperature
or increasing it if the surface moisture fluxes cannot ventilate beyond the new
surface layer; both conditions indicate downdraft origin air from within the boundary
layer. When rain rates exceed ∼ 2 mm h−1, convective-scale downdrafts can bring
down drier air of lower equivalent potential temperature from above the boundary
layer. The resulting density currents facilitate the lifting of locally thermodynamically
favorable air and can impose an arc-shaped mesoscale cloud organization. This
organization allows clouds capable of reaching 4–5 km within otherwise dry environments.
These are more commonly observed in the northern hemisphere trade wind regime,
where the flow to the intertropical convergence zone is unimpeded by the equator.
Their near-surface air properties share much with those shown from cold pools
sampled in the equatorial Indian Ocean. Cold pools are most effective at influencing
the mesoscale organization when the atmosphere is moist in the lower free troposphere
and dry above, suggesting an optimal range of water vapor paths. Outstanding questions
on the relationship between cold pools, their accompanying moisture distribution
and cloud cover are detailed further. Near-surface water vapor rings are documented
in one model inside but near the cold pool edge; these are not consistent with
observations, but do improve with smaller horizontal grid spacings.

text: Convective self-aggregation, the spontaneous organization of initially scattered
convection into isolated convective clusters despite spatially homogeneous boundary
conditions and forcing, was first recognized and studied in idealized numerical
simulations. While there is a rich history of observational work on convective
clustering and organization, there have been only a few studies that have analyzed
observations to look specifically for processes related to self-aggregation in
models. Here we review observational work in both of these categories and motivate
the need for more of this work. We acknowledge that self-aggregation may appear
to be far-removed from observed convective organization in terms of time scales,
initial conditions, initiation processes, and mean state extremes, but we argue
that these differences vary greatly across the diverse range of model simulations
in the literature and that these comparisons are already offering important insights
into real tropical phenomena. Some preliminary new findings are presented, including
results showing that a self-aggregation simulation with square geometry has too
broad distribution of humidity and is too dry in the driest regions when compared
with radiosonde records from Nauru, while an elongated channel simulation has
realistic representations of atmospheric humidity and its variability. We discuss
recent work increasing our understanding of how organized convection and climate
change may interact, and how model discrepancies related to this question are
prompting interest in observational comparisons. We also propose possible future
directions for observational work related to convective aggregation, including
novel satellite approaches and a ground-based observational network.

text: Organized convection in the tropics occurs across a range of spatial and temporal
scales and strongly influences cloud cover and humidity. One mode of organization
found is “self-aggregation,” in which moist convection spontaneously organizes
into one or several isolated clusters despite spatially homogeneous boundary conditions
and forcing. Self-aggregation is driven by interactions between clouds, moisture,
radiation, surface fluxes, and circulation, and occurs in a wide variety of idealized
simulations of radiative–convective equilibrium. Here we provide a review of convective
self-aggregation in numerical simulations, including its character, causes, and
effects. We describe the evolution of self-aggregation including its time and
length scales and the physical mechanisms leading to its triggering and maintenance,
and we also discuss possible links to climate and climate change.

text: Distributed glacier melt models generally assume that the glacier surface
consists of bare exposed ice and snow. In reality, many glaciers are wholly or
partially covered in layers of debris that tend to suppress ablation rates. In
this paper, an existing physically based point model for the ablation of debris-covered
ice is incorporated in a distributed melt model and applied to Haut Glacier d'Arolla,
Switzerland, which has three large patches of debris cover on its surface. The
model is based on a 10 m resolution digital elevation model (DEM) of the area;
each glacier pixel in the DEM is defined as either bare or debris-covered ice,
and may be covered in snow that must be melted off before ice ablation is assumed
to occur. Each debris-covered pixel is assigned a debris thickness value using
probability distributions based on over 1000 manual thickness measurements. Locally
observed meteorological data are used to run energy balance calculations in every
pixel, using an approach suitable for snow, bare ice or debris-covered ice as
appropriate. The use of the debris model significantly reduces the total ablation
in the debris-covered areas, however the precise reduction is sensitive to the
temperature extrapolation used in the model distribution because air near the
debris surface tends to be slightly warmer than over bare ice. Overall results
suggest that the debris patches, which cover 10% of the glacierized area, reduce
total runoff from the glacierized part of the basin by up to 7%.

text: Temperature data from three Automatic Weather Stations and twelve Temperature
Loggers are used to investigate the spatiotemporal variability of temperature
over a glacier, its main atmospheric controls, the suitability of extrapolation
techniques and their effect on melt modeling. We use data collected on Juncal
Norte Glacier, central Chile, during one ablation season. We examine temporal
and spatial variability in lapse rates (LRs), together with alternative statistical
interpolation methods. The main control over the glacier thermal regime is the
development of a katabatic boundary layer (KBL). Katabatic wind occurs at night
and in the morning and is eroded in the afternoon. LRs reveal strong diurnal variability,
with steeper LRs during the day when the katabatic wind weakens and shallower
LRs during the night and morning. We suggest that temporally variable LRs should
be used to account for the observed change. They tend to be steeper than equivalent
constant LRs, and therefore result in a reduction in simulated melt compared to
use of constant LRs when extrapolating from lower to higher elevations. In addition
to the temporal variability, the temperature-elevation relationship varies also
in space. Differences are evident between local LRs and including such variability
in melt modeling affects melt simulations. Extrapolation methods based on the
spatial variability of the observations after removal of the elevation trend,
such as Inverse Distance Weighting or Kriging, do not seem necessary for simulations
of gridded temperature data over a glacier.

text: '[1] During the ablation period 2001 a glaciometeorological experiment was
carried out on Haut Glacier d''Arolla, Switzerland. Five meteorological stations
were installed on the glacier, and one permanent automatic weather station in
the glacier foreland. The altitudes of the stations ranged between 2500 and 3000
m a.s.l., and they were in operation from end of May to beginning of September
2001. The spatial arrangement of the stations and temporal duration of the measurements
generated a unique data set enabling the analysis of the spatial and temporal
variability of the meteorological variables across an alpine glacier. All measurements
were taken at a nominal height of 2 m, and hourly averages were derived for the
analysis. The wind regime was dominated by the glacier wind (mean value 2.8 m
s−1) but due to erosion by the synoptic gradient wind, occasionally the wind would
blow up the valley. A slight decrease in mean 2 m air temperatures with altitude
was found, however the 2 m air temperature gradient varied greatly and frequently
changed its sign. Mean relative humidity was 71% and exhibited limited spatial
variation. Mean incoming shortwave radiation and albedo both generally increased
with elevation. The different components of shortwave radiation are quantified
with a parameterization scheme. Resulting spatial variations are mainly due to
horizon obstruction and reflections from surrounding slopes, i.e., topography.
The effect of clouds accounts for a loss of 30% of the extraterrestrial flux.
Albedos derived from a Landsat TM image of 30 July show remarkably constant values,
in the range 0.49 to 0.50, across snow covered parts of the glacier, while albedo
is highly spatially variable below the zone of continuous snow cover. These results
are verified with ground measurements and compared with parameterized albedo.
Mean longwave radiative fluxes decreased with elevation due to lower air temperatures
and the effect of upper hemisphere slopes. It is shown through parameterization
that this effect would even be more pronounced without the effect of clouds. Results
are discussed with respect to a similar study which has been carried out on Pasterze
Glacier (Austria). The presented algorithms for interpolating, parameterizing
and simulating variables and parameters in alpine regions are integrated in the
software package AMUNDSEN which is freely available to be adapted and further
developed by the community.'
