This review summarizes the scientific and technical progress in atmospheric modeling in
China since 2011, including the dynamical core, model physics, data assimilation, ensemble …

Recent studies have shown that cumulus updrafts often consist of a succession of discrete
rising thermals with spherical vortex-like circulations. In this paper, a theory is developed for …

The process of entrainment-mixing between cumulus clouds and the ambient air is important
for the development of cumulus clouds. Accurately obtaining the entrainment rate (λ) is …

The influence of entrainment, a key process characterized by the entrainment rate in
cumulus parameterization, on aerosol‐cloud interactions has been widely recognized …

Both climate forcing and climate sensitivity persist as stubborn uncertainties limiting the
extent to which climate models can provide actionable scientific scenarios for climate …

Different entrainment–mixing processes can occur in clouds; however, a homogeneous
mixing mechanism is often implicitly assumed in most commonly used microphysics …

The parameterization of cloud entrainment rate has been problematic for many years,
hindering the accurate representation of convective processes in large‐scale models. Here …

In the study of warm clouds, there are many outstanding questions. Cloud droplet size
distributions are much wider, and warm rain is initiated in a shorter time and with a shallower …

Entrainment, subsequent mixing processes, and their microphysical influences in cumulus
and stratocumulus clouds are essential to cloud physics and further affect aerosol‐cloud …

To investigate how entrainment is influenced by convective organization, we use the ICON
(ICOsahedral Nonhydrostatic) model in a radiative‐convective equilibrium framework, with a …
