Short summary
The link between storm updrafts and the high clouds they produce has been difficult to study at large scale but may be important for understanding climate sensitivity. This study uses a new high-resolution global climate model and cloud tracking approach to study this link. More intense updrafts saw larger clouds, but this relationship was much stronger when the updrafts themselves were wider. That means changes in the usual size of updrafts could link to changes in high-cloud area.
