Sub‐Cloud Turbulence Explains Cloud‐Base Updrafts for Shallow Cumulus Ensembles: First Observational Evidence
Abstract Sub‐cloud turbulent kinetic energy has been used to parameterize the cloud‐base updraft velocity (wb) in cumulus parameterizations. The validity of this idea has never been proved in observations. Instead, it was challenged by recent Doppler Lidar observations showing a poor correlation bet...
