Radiation Weakens Idealized Midlatitude Cyclones

Abstract Midlatitude cyclones are strongly affected by diabatic processes. While the importance of latent heating is well established, the role of radiation has received little attention. Here we address this question for idealized cyclones by performing baroclinic life cycle simulations in the glob...
