MLS and CALIPSO Evidence for a Warm-Pool Transition in Tropical Convective Moistening and Cloud Ice
Upper-tropospheric water vapor and cloud ice associated with tropical deep convection are central to water-vapor and high-cloud feedbacks. We investigate a warm-pool transition in tropical convective moistening using 20 years of Aura Microwave Limb Sounder (MLS) Version 5 H2O and cloud-ice observations (August 2004-Dec...
