Science behind SynSatiPy

Earlier versions of the SynSat interface were utilized for scientific studies with various research targets, for instance to

• assess the realism of cloud characteristics in super high-resolution ICON simulations over Germany (https://doi.org/10.1002/qj.2947)

  

• investigate SynSat uncertainties in the presence of Cirrus clouds (https://doi.org/10.1016/j.atmosres.2016.08.012)

  

• characterize quality weather forecasts of deep convective development (https://doi.org/10.1175/MWR-D-16-0480.1)

  

• evaluate simulated deep tropical convection (https://doi.org/10.1175/MWR-D-17-0378.1)

  

• study convective organization over Germany (https://doi.org/10.1002/qj.3552)

  

• support development of innovate convection parameterizations (https://doi.org/10.1175/MWR-D-20-0107.1)

• study cloud radiative effects by cloud type (https://doi.org/10.1029/2020JD032667)
