❗ Model Reveals Hidden Warming Layer Above Stratocumulus Clouds❗
Understanding #stratocumulus #clouds is key to predicting #ClimateSensitivity. MPI-M scientist Kenneth Chan and his colleagues discovered a previously unresolved "W-Layer," a thin (just 5 meters!) warming layer above stratocumulus cloud tops. ⛅ It was previously unknown because it is too thin for most simulations to resolve! Their discovery reveals a blind spot in current stratocumulus simulations. 🔍
