Diurnal Evolution of the Cloud-Topped Marine Boundary Layer. Part I: Nocturnal Stratocumulus Development

Source: Journal of the Atmospheric Sciences:;1995:;Volume( 052 ):;issue: 016:;page 2953

Author(s): Rogers, David P.; Yang, Xiaohua; Norris, Peter M.; Johnson, Douglas W.; Martin, Gill M.; Friehe, Carl A.; Berger, Bradford W.

Publisher: American Meteorological Society

Abstract: The structure and evolution of the extratropical marine atmosphere boundary layer (MABL) depend largely on the variability of stratus and stratocumulus clouds. Stratus clouds are generally associated with a well-mixed MABL, ...

Cloud Detection with MODIS. Part II: Validation

Source: Journal of Atmospheric and Oceanic Technology:;2008:;volume( 025 ):;issue: 007:;page 1073

Author(s): Ackerman, S. A.; Holz, R. E.; Frey, R.; Eloranta, E. W.; Maddux, B. C.; McGill, M.

Publisher: American Meteorological Society

Abstract: An assessment of the performance of the Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS) cloud mask algorithm for Terra and Aqua satellites is presented. The MODIS cloud mask algorithm output is compared with lidar ...

Comparison of CALIPSO-Like, LaRC, and MODIS Retrievals of Ice-Cloud Properties over SIRTA in France and Florida during CRYSTAL-FACE

Source: Journal of Applied Meteorology and Climatology:;2007:;volume( 046 ):;issue: 003:;page 249

Publisher: American Meteorological Society

Abstract: This study compares cirrus-cloud properties and, in particular, particle effective radius retrieved by a Cloud-Aerosol Lidar and Infrared Pathfinder Satellite Observation (CALIPSO)-like method with two similar methods using ...

Greater Future U.K. Winter Precipitation Increase in New Convection-Permitting Scenarios

Source: Journal of Climate:;2020:;volume( 33 ):;issue: 017:;page 7303

Author(s): Kendon, Elizabeth J.;Roberts, Nigel M.;Fosser, Giorgia;Martin, Gill M.;Lock, Adrian P.;Murphy, James M.;Senior, Catherine A.;Tucker, Simon O.

Publisher: American Meteorological Society

Abstract: For the first time, a model at a resolution on par with operational weather forecast models has been used for national climate scenarios. An ensemble of 12 climate change projections at convection-permitting (2.2 km) scale ...
