Abstract:

This dataset includes 2 simulations with the cloud-resolving model SAM, enabled with isotopes (System for Atmospheric Modeling). Simulations are in radiative-convective equilibrium as in Risi et al. (2020, 2021). Both simulations include large-scale ascent peaking -40hPa/d at 5km.

1) Cyclone: Domain of 1024 km x km with a horizontal resolution of 4 km and 96 vertical levels. The effect of rotation is added through a Coriolis parameter that corresponds to a latitude of 40°.

2) Squall line: Domain of 256 km x 256 km with a horizontal resolution is 2 km and 96 vertical levels. We add a horizontally uniform wind in the x direction that reaches 10 m/s at the surface and linearly decrease to 0 m/s at 1 km.

These simulations are used in the article Risi et al. (2023).
