Research data for "Sensitivities of warm conveyor belt ascent, associated precipitation characteristics and large-scale flow pattern - insights from a perturbed parameter ensemble"

This archive contains warm conveyor belt (WCB) trajectory data from a perturbed parameter ensemble (PPE) presented in the manuscript "Sensitivities of warm conveyor belt ascent, associated precipitation characteristics and large-scale flow pattern - insights from a perturbed parameter ensemble" published in the Quartely Journal of the Royal Meteorological Society. The study presents a 70-member perturbed parameter ensemble (PPE) built with the Icosahedral Nonhydrostatic (ICON) modelling framework and analyses sensitivities of WCB ascent and its characteristics to perturbations of cloud microphysical parameters and environmental conditions.

WCB ascent behaviour and associated properties are quantified based on online trajectories which are included in this archive. Details about parameter perturbations and variables stored along WCB trajectories are provided in the original publication.
