RISCirrus Microphysical Properties and Air Motion Statistics Using Cloud Radar Doppler Moments. Part I: Algorithm Description
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The first three moments of the millimeter-wavelength radar Doppler spectrum provide valuable information regarding both cloud properties and air motion. An algorithm using these Doppler radar moments is developed to retrieve ...
Cirrus Microphysical Properties and Air Motion Statistics Using Cloud Radar Doppler Moments. Part II: Climatology
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The algorithm described in Part I has been applied to the millimeter cloud radar observations from January 1999 to December 2005 at the Atmospheric Radiation Measurement Program (ARM) Southern Great Plains (SGP) and Tropical ...
Anvil Productivities of Tropical Deep Convective Clusters and Their Regional Differences
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: he anvil productivities of tropical deep convection are investigated and compared among eight climatological regions using 4 yr of collocated and combined CloudSat and CALIPSO data. For all regions, the convective clusters ...
Influence of the Cement Fineness on Strengths of Cement Pastes Containing High Phosphorus Slag
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Mechanical grinding was used to increase the specific surface area of cement in order to increase the dosage of phosphorus slag (PS) in Type
Evaluation of Several A-Train Ice Cloud Retrieval Products with In Situ Measurements Collected during the SPARTICUS Campaign
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: n this study several ice cloud retrieval products that utilize active and passive A-Train measurements are evaluated using in situ data collected during the Small Particles in Cirrus (SPARTICUS) field campaign. The retrieval ...
Association of Tropical Cirrus in the 10–15-km Layer with Deep Convective Sources: An Observational Study Combining Millimeter Radar Data and Satellite-Derived Trajectories
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: In this paper, millimeter cloud radar (MMCR) and Geosynchronous Meteorological Satellite (GMS) data are combined to study the properties of tropical cirrus that are common in the 10?15-km layer of the tropical troposphere ...

Relationships between Ice Water Content and Volume Extinction Coefficient from In Situ Observations for Temperatures from 0° to −86°C: Implications for Spaceborne Lidar Retrievals
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: n examination of 2 yr of Cloud?Aerosol Lidar Infrared Pathfinder Satellite Observations (CALIPSO) lidar observations and CloudSat cloud radar observations shows that ice clouds at temperatures below about ?45°C frequently ...
Partitioning Ice Water Content from Retrievals and Its Application in Model Comparison
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: AbstractRetrieved bulk microphysics from remote sensing observations is a composite of ice, snow, and graupel in the three-species ice-phase bulk microphysics parameterization. In this study, density thresholds are used ...
