Quantifying the radiative response to surface temperature variability: A critical comparison of current methods
Leif Fredericks, Maria Rugenstein, David W. J. Thompson +8
Over the past decade, it has become clear that the radiative response to surface temperature change depends on the spatially varying structure in the temperature field, a phenomeno…

Spatial Controls of Lower Tropospheric Stability
Senne Van Loon, Maria Rugenstein
Marine low clouds play a crucial role in Earth's radiation budget. These clouds efficiently reflect sunlight and drive the magnitude and sign of the global cloud feedback. Neverthe…

Reanalysis-based Global Radiative Response to Sea Surface Temperature Patterns: Evaluating the Ai2 Climate Emulator
Senne Van Loon, Maria Rugenstein, Elizabeth A. Barnes
The sensitivity of the radiative flux at the top of the atmosphere to surface temperature perturbations cannot be directly observed. The relationship between sea surface temperatur…
