Subgrid-scale Cloud Closure

Subgrid-Scale Cloud Closure is a theoretical framework in atmospheric modeling that establishes a relationship between resolved-scale meteorological variables and the statistics of unresolved, subgrid-scale cloud processes to determine cloud fraction and condensate in climate and numerical weather prediction models.
