Short summary
Polar low-level clouds are most often of mixed-phase composition as they contain both liquid droplets and ice crystals. Such clouds are challenging to simulate in climate models, leading to uncertainties in the projection of polar climates. This study presents major advances in the representation of polar mixed-phase clouds in a climate model thanks to the adaptation of an original subgrid parameterization which considers interactions between turbulent eddies and clouds.
