Evaluation of ECMWF Radiation Scheme Using Aircraft Observations of Spectral Irradiance above Clouds
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: A novel approach to compare airborne observations of solar spectral irradiances measured above clouds with along-track radiative transfer simulations (RTS) is presented. The irradiance measurements were obtained with the ...
The Arctic Cloud Puzzle: Using ACLOUD/PASCAL Multiplatform Observations to Unravel the Role of Clouds and Aerosol Particles in Arctic Amplification
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: AbstractClouds play an important role in Arctic amplification. This term represents the recently observed enhanced warming of the Arctic relative to the global increase of near-surface air temperature. However, there are ...
Observations of aerosol, cloud, turbulence, and radiation properties at the top of the marine boundary layer over the Eastern North Atlantic Ocean: The ACORES campaign
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Helicopter-borne observations with unprecedented high resolution provide new insights in the fine-scale structure of marine boundary layer clouds and aerosol stratification over the Eastern North Atlantic.We report on the ...
The North Atlantic Waveguide and Downstream Impact Experiment
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: AbstractThe North Atlantic Waveguide and Downstream Impact Experiment (NAWDEX) explored the impact of diabatic processes on disturbances of the jet stream and their influence on downstream high-impact weather through the ...
ML-CIRRUS: The Airborne Experiment on Natural Cirrus and Contrail Cirrus with the High-Altitude Long-Range Research Aircraft HALO
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: he Midlatitude Cirrus experiment (ML-CIRRUS) deployed the High Altitude and Long Range Research Aircraft (HALO) to obtain new insights into nucleation, life cycle, and climate impact of natural cirrus and aircraft-induced ...
ACRIDICON–CHUVA Campaign: Studying Tropical Deep Convective Clouds and Precipitation over Amazonia Using the New German Research Aircraft HALO
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: etween 1 September and 4 October 2014, a combined airborne and ground-based measurement campaign was conducted to study tropical deep convective clouds over the Brazilian Amazon rain forest. The new German research aircraft, ...
