Hi guys,
In ERA 5 there are 5 variables referring to the mean temperature tendencies due to parametrisation:
1) Mean temperature tendency due to short-wave radiation
2) Mean temperature tendency due to short-wave radiation, clear-sky
3) Mean temperature tendency due to long-wave radiation
4) Mean temperature tendency due to long-wave radiation, clear-sky
5) Mean temperature tendency due to parametrisations
My question:
1) Does the variable "Mean temperature tendency due to parametrisations" contain the effect of all parametrisations, including radiation, or do I have to calculate (Mean temperature tendency due to parametrisations) + (Mean temperature tendency due to short-wave radiation) + (Mean temperature tendency due to long-wave radiation) to get the overall diabatic heating at one grid point?
2) (Mean temperature tendency due to short-wave radiation) minus (Mean temperature tendency due to short-wave radiation, clear-sky) yields the diabatic heating due to clouds, right?
3) Is there also a variable relating to the adiabatic heating rate?
Many thanks,
Amelie
