On the Resolution‐Dependence of Anvil Cloud Fraction and Precipitation Efficiency in Radiative‐Convective Equilibrium

Abstract Tropical anvil clouds are an important player in Earth's climate and climate sensitivity, but simulations of anvil clouds are uncertain. Here we identify and investigate one source of uncertainty by demonstrating a marked increase of anvil cloud fraction with resolution in cloud‐resolv...
