46 Polar Low Vertical structure 16:01 UTC on 3 March 11:28 UTC on 4 March Θ Initial state: Cold air outbreaks combined with low level baroclinicity and/or upper level PV anomalies RH Mature state: Windy marine PBL with large surface fluxes of heat Deep convective clouds Wind Føre et al, 2011
47 Summary of extratropical storms The large-scale flow and location of baroclinicity determines where the systems will occur Most types of clouds are found in the vicinity of extratropical storms Responsible for the northward heat transport from the midlatitudes and poleward warm conveyor belt important The latent heat released when the clouds are formed are important energy source for the storms Dynamics and microphysics interact and is challenging to get right in models
48 Cloud Radiative Effect at TOA Large negative CRE No net effect Small positive CRE E Karlsson, 2009
49 Cloud Radiative Effect at TOA CERES, Annual mean Midlatitude storm clouds, along with tropical convection, produce the strongest SW radiative cooling at TOA N Loeb Cooling effect is stronger in the summer due to stronger insolation despite weaker storm track
50 Cloud Radiative Effect at TOA and surface CERES, Annual mean N. Loeb
51 Cloud Radiative Effect at Surface The cloud radiative effect at the surface: Smaller Shortwave cloud albedo Larger Longwave cloud greenhouse effect dominates effect dominates
