Koning, A.M. (author), Nuijens, Louise (author), Bosveld, F. C. (author), Siebesma, A.P. (author), van Dorp, P. A. (author), Jonker, H.J.J. (author)This study investigates how wind shear and momentum fluxes in the surface- and boundary layer vary across wind and cloud regimes. We use a 9-year-long data set from the Cabauw observatory complemented by (8.2 × 8.2 (Formula presented.)) daily Large Eddy Simulation (LES) hindcasts. An automated algorithm classifies observed and simulated days...journal article 2021

Helfer, K.C. (author), Nuijens, Louise (author), de Roode, S.R. (author), Siebesma, A.P. (author)Motivated by an observed relationship between marine low cloud cover and surface wind speed, this study investigates how vertical wind shear affects trade-wind cumulus convection, including shallow cumulus and congestus with tops below the freezing level. We ran large-eddy simulations for an idealized case of trade-wind convection using...journal article 2020

Saggiorato, B. (author), Nuijens, Louise (author), Siebesma, A.P. (author), de Roode, S.R. (author), Sandu, I. (author), Papritz, L. (author)To study the influence of convective momentum transport (CMT) on wind, boundary layer and cloud evolution in a marine cold air outbreak (CAO) we use large-eddy simulations subject to different baroclinicity (wind shear) but similar surface forcing. The simulated domain is large enough, (Formula presented.) km<sup>2</sup>), to develop typical...journal article 2020
