Research direction

Start with the linked Clouds diagnostics recipe and inspect the listed recipe_lauer22jclim_*.yml, recipe_clouds_bias.yml, and recipe_lauer13jclim.yml files. Trace each missing reference dataset and variable, then run the affected recipes to confirm that the cloud climatologies evaluate successfully for all listed datasets.
