The cloud–resolving model and the mixed–layer model, combined with observations, are powerful tools for studying these physical processes interacting with climate. In this article, the authors’ research work of the past 15 years on tropical climate processes is reviewed. The topics reviewed include climate equilibrium study, tropical convective responses to radiative and microphysical processes, the diurnal cycle, cloud clustering and associated cloud–microphysical processes, precipitation efficiency, air–sea exchanges and ocean–mixing processes at diurnal–to–intraseasonal scales, and coupled boundary layer and forced oceanic responses. Representation of these processes in climate models and future perspectives are also discussed. © 2008 by World Scientific Publishing Co. Pte. Ltd. All rights reserved. |
