Non-precipitating shallow cumulus simulations with FastEddy (LES intercomparisons)

The datasets contains numerical results from FastEddy simulations of non-precipitating shallow cumulus clouds corresponding to the intercomparison exercises from Siebesma et al. 2003 (oceanic static forcing), and Brown et al. 2002 (diurnal evolution over land). The discussion of these simulation results is provided in: D. Muñoz-Esparza, J.A. Sauer, A.A. Jensen, L. Xue, W.W. Grabowski, 2022. "The FastEddy Resident-GPU Accelerated Large-Eddy Simulation Framework: Moist Dynamics Extension, Validation and Sensitivities of Modeling Non-Precipitating Shallow Cumulus Clouds". Journal of Advances in Modeling Earth Systems.
