Quasi-Lagrangian Large Eddy Simulations of Cross-Equatorial Flow in the East Pacific Atmospheric Boundary Layer
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Using a large eddy simulation (LES), the atmospheric boundary layer (ABL) is numerically modeled along 95°W from 8°S to 4°N during boreal autumn, and compared to observations from the East Pacific Investigation of Climate ...
The Appearance and Disappearance of Ship Tracks on Large Spatial Scales
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The 1-km advanced very high resolution radiometer observations from the morning, NOAA-12, and afternoon, NOAA-11, satellite passes over the coast of California during June 1994 are used to determine the altitudes, visible ...
Ocean–Cloud–Atmosphere–Land Interactions in the Southeastern Pacific: The VOCALS Program
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: nt paper describes the Variability of the American Monsoon Systems (VAMOS) Ocean?Cloud?Atmosphere?Land Study (VOCALS), an international research program focused on the improved understanding and modeling of the southeastern ...
The Impact of Ship-Produced Aerosols on the Microstructure and Albedo of Warm Marine Stratocumulus Clouds: A Test of MAST Hypotheses 1i and 1ii
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Anomalously high reflectivity tracks in stratus and stratocumulus sheets associated with ships (known as ship tracks) are commonly seen in visible and near-infrared satellite imagery. Until now there have been only a limited ...
Dynamics and Chemistry of Marine Stratocumulus—DYCOMS-II
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The second Dynamics and Chemistry of Marine Stratocumulus (DYCOMS-II) field study is described. The field program consisted of nine flights in marine stratocumulus west-southwest of San Diego, California. The objective of ...
