a Vertical distribution of cloud fraction (January 1989–December 2008) regressed onto the SST for a NICAM AMIP-type experiment under present (aqua) and warming (pink) conditions. b Vertical distribution of ice hydrometeors regressed onto the SST in a NICAM AMIP-type experiment, where yellow, green, and blue denote ice water content from cloud ice, snow, and graupel, respectively. In b solid and dashed lines denote present and warming conditions, respectively. Error bars show the standard deviation in the tropical region (30° S–30° N) for each variable. From Chen et al. 2022,
