Subgrid Cloud Variability

Subgrid Cloud Variability is an academic construct in atmospheric modeling that denotes the spatial heterogeneity of cloud properties within a single model grid cell, which cannot be resolved by the model’s finite resolution and necessitates statistical representation in cloud parameterization schemes.
