Evaluation of Low‐Level Clouds, Temperature, and Surface Radiation Using a Model, Two Reanalyses, and Southern Ocean Observations
Low‐level clouds over the Southern Ocean (SO) exert a strong influence on surface radiation, yet their representation in reanalyses and climate models remains uncertain. We evaluated cloud properties and surface radiative fluxes from ERA5, MERRA‐2, and the CAM‐ATRAS model using observations obtained over the SO by Japa...
