Large‐eddy simulation (LES) results of shallow cumulus convection are directly evaluated against in‐cloud aircraft measurements, as made during the Small Cumulus Microphysics Study (SCMS). To this purpose an LES case is first constructed, based on available observations (during SCMS). Then the simulations are directly compared with the in‐cloud measurements by using conditionally sampled fields. An advantage of the SCMS dataset is the combination of a range of different surface measurements, in‐cloud measurements by an aircraft at many levels in the cloud layer, and the availability of high‐resolution Landsat images.
