Predicting cloud water variations in the GISS GCMA cloud water parameterization under development for the NASA Goddard Institute for Space Studies (GISS) global climate model (GCM) is described. The scheme is based on the studies of Sundqvist (1978) and Sundqvist et al. (1989), with a number of additional features designed to mimic the effects of important microphysical and dynamic processes in clouds. Preliminary results on geographical and seasonal variations from simulations of the current climate are presented.
