Fig. 6 — Vertical distribution of moisture tendencies (left) and cloud fraction (right) for a SCM experiment under CGILS framework (shallow cumulus regime, s6) using the IPSL-CM5A-LR GCM. Moisture tendencies include: turbulence and convection (cyan), grid-average net condensation (blue, which includes cloud formation, precipitation and evaporation), large-scale subsidence (orange) and the sum of all moisture tendencies (black). Results are shown for the present-day climate (solid) and as a response to a surface warming of $+ 2$ K (dash). Adapted from Vial et al. (2016)
