We just published a paper that shows including lateral flow of soil moisture matters for climate once you get down to km-scale modelling of the land surface. More and more of our work is at these scales so we need to start including processes like this. 🧪

The influence of lateral flow on land surface fluxes in southeast Australia varies with model resolution
Abstract. Land surface models (LSMs) used in climate models typically represent surface hydrology as one-dimensional vertical fluxes, neglecting the lateral movement of water within and between grids....

Earth is losing clouds — fast.
Storm zones have shrunk by up to 3% per decade.
That’s helping drive record-breaking heat.
New NASA-led research featuring @Weather21C shows how less cloud = more warming.

New study shows cloud loss contributing to record-breaking temperatures
NASA-led study shows Earth’s cloud cover is shrinking, amplifying warming. Fewer clouds mean more heat absorbed and record temperatures worldwide.

I'll be using precipitation observations with a lot more caution after Lisa's interesting talk.
Next, Prof Lisa Alexander talks about what we know (and don't know) about large-scale precipitation.
