Deep convective clouds are the source of some of the largest uncertainties in climate projection models. This research will better characterise turbulence, mixing and momentum transport processes around clouds and develop new methods to include these effects in climate models, leading to more robust estimates of future climate change. An additional benefit of this work is that it will develop new guidelines for cloud-induced turbulence avoidance for use by the aviation industry and lead to increased aviation safety.

深对流云是气候预测模型中一些最大不确定性的来源。这项研究将更好地描述云周围的湍流、混合和动量输送过程，并开发新的方法，将这些影响纳入气候模型，从而对未来气候变化做出更可靠的估计。这项工作的另一个好处是，它将制定新的避免云引起的湍流的指导方针，供航空业使用，并提高航空安全。
