【 摘 要 】

Under the support of this grant, we investigated the fast process of interaction of clouds, shallow convection, and boundary layer turbulence and their parameterizations. Main accomplishments involve two things. One is the understanding of the physical mechanisms of low cloud feedbacks; the second is the development and evaluation of convection and cloud parameterizations in climate models.
