Overview

This study demonstrates hemispheric differences in cloud phases in mixed-phase clouds, suggesting model adjustments are necessary.

Key Points

  • The Southern Hemisphere exhibits higher occurrences of supercooled liquid water compared to the Northern Hemisphere.
  • Model evaluations reveal consistent overestimation of liquid water content in mixed-phase clouds across both hemispheres.
  • Investigation involved in situ observations from 14 flight campaigns alongside global climate model outputs.
  • Key processes affecting model biases in phase partitioning were identified through comprehensive evaluations.
