Adding figures of Bock and Lauer (2024)

[LisaBock]

Description

In this PR we add the figures of Bock and Lauer, 2024

Fig. 3: Geographical maps of cloud properties
Fig. 4: Geographical maps of net cloud radiative effect
Fig. 6: Zonal averages of cloud properties and their relative projected changes
Fig. 7: Boxplots of relative changes in projected cloud properties

Note: In Figure 3 only the total cloud fraction is included and liquid and ice water path are commented out. The reason is a different standard name of these two variables in CMIP5 and CMIP6 which doesn't allow a computation of the multi model mean by the preprocessor. Iris is working on a solution of the problem: SciTools/iris#5313 (review)

Thank you so much @schlunma for the review!

I tried my best regarding the codacy issues. Could we leave it like that?

[LisaBock]

Thanks @schlunma for reviewing!
I changed the line about the ancestor files in the other two diagnostic scripts as well. Hopefully, it's all fine now.

[schlunma]

I still get the "invalid ancestor" error from clouds/clouds_ecs_groups_maps.py:

log.txt

Ah, and there is a WARNING Could not write HTML report: Some tags in the recipe could not be resolved: syntax error in line 13: premature end of file which prevents the index.html file to be written (which we need to get a nice overview of the results).

I am not quite sure what the problem is, I guess it's either a recipe problem (this warning appears in all 3 recipes) or a syntax error in the bibtex file you added (esmvaltool/references/bock24acp.bibtex).

[LisaBock]

Hi @schlunma , both issues should be solved now. In my tests, there are no warnings anymore.

Thanks Lisa, looks good now! All recipes ran successful and their output looks good 🚀
