Prof. Reed and colleague Dr. Brian Medeiros (from the National Center for Atmospheric Research) published an article in AGU’s Geophysical Research Letters (GRL).  The work uses idealized radiative convective equilibrium in reduced planet setups to study the impact of horizontal grid spacing on convection. Furthermore, the setup provides a framework to compare high-resolution GCMs to cloud-resolving models.  Check out the publication here: http://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/2015GL066713/full
