Cloud Radiative Feedbacks and El Niño—Southern Oscillation

Cloud radiative feedbacks are disabled via “cloud-locking” in the Community Earth System Model, version 1.2 (CESM1.2), to result in a shift in El Niño–Southern Oscillation (ENSO) periodicity from 2–7 years to decadal time scales. We hypothesize that cloud radiative feedbacks may impact the periodicity in three ways, by: Read more “Cloud Radiative Feedbacks and El Niño—Southern Oscillation” →
