Contrasting characteristics of open- and closed-cellular stratocumulus cloud in the eastern North Atlantic

<p>Extensive regions of marine boundary layer cloud impact the radiative balance through their significant shortwave albedo while having little impact on outgoing longwave radiation. Despite this importance, these cloud systems remain poorly represented in large-scale models due to difficulty...
