Not exact matches
Obviously, in an actual cloud, the relative humidity is close to 100 %, but at a grid box scale of 100's of km, the mean humidity — even if there are quite a few clouds — will be substantially less.
Whether the activity of cumulus convection is determined by the variables averaged over the grid box of numerical models (100 km scale for typical GCMs, 20 km scale in the case of «high resolution» GCM of MRI).
Climate models can not simulate clouds explicitly because their dynamic scales (10 - 100 m) are much smaller than typical length scales of climate model grid boxes (25 - 100 km).
The atmospheric component of CM2.5 has similar physics as CM2.1, but uses grid box cells that are 50 Km on a side, versus approximately 200 Km in CM2.1.
