The role of temperature on the distribution of water, and hence the efficiency of mixing, is reviewed with an attempt to better understand and constrain feedbacks on radiative forcing associated with marine boundary layer clouds in a variety of climates. Recent work that highlights the role of lower tropospheric mixing on the modeled response to climate forcing will be discussed.
