Plain Language Summary: We intercompared the cloud properties of the seven atmospheric general circulation models with a grid spacing of less than about 5 km over the Atlantic Ocean. The domain averaged outgoing longwave radiation was found to be similar across the models. The vertical structure of cloud water, cloud ice and cloud fraction exhibited large variations across models.
