Aerosols and Trace Gases in the Effluents Produced by the Launch of Large Liquid- and Solid-Fueled Rockets
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Airborne measurements over periods of several hours were made in the effluents that collected in the boundary layer in the form of ?ground clouds? when an Atlas/Centaur and Titan III rocket were launched at night-time from ...
Measurements of Transformations in the Physical and Chemical Properties of Clouds Associated with Onshore Flow in Washington State
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Preliminary measurements of several physical and chemical parameters associated with clouds in two cases of onshore flow over western Washington suggest that the physical and chemical properties of maritime, cloudy air ...
The Effects of In-Cloud Sulfate Production on Light-Scattering Properties of Continental Aerosol
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Model calculations am presented for continental scenarios that demonstrate that the heterogeneity in the chemistry of different size cloud drops can have a significant impact on the amount of sulfate produced in cloud, its ...
Cloud Condensation Nuclei over the Arctic Ocean in Early Spring
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Cloud condensation nucleus (CCN) spectral data are presented for the Arctic in spring, which considerably augment the existing meager CCN database for the Arctic. Concurrent measurements of sulfate mass suggest that men ...
Measurements of Some Aerosol Properties Relevant to Radiative Forcing on the East Coast of the United States
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Airborne measurements of aerosol light-scattering efficiencies are presented for a portion of the northeast Atlantic seaboard of the United State during July 1993. The measurements suggest a value for the sulfate ...
Parameterization of Heterogeneous Droplet Chemistry for Use in Bulk Cloud Models
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Comparison of in-cloud sulfate production by a bulk-parameterized cloud model, a modified bulk parameterized model, and an explicit microphysical model for a wide variety of scenarios has been used as the basis for deriving ...
Speciation of Organic Aerosols in the Tropical Mid-Pacific and Their Relationship to Light Scattering
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Although the importance of the aerosol contribution to the global radiative budget has been recognized, the forcings of aerosols in general, and specifically the role of the organic component in these forcings, still contain ...
Aerosol Properties and Chemical Apportionment of Aerosol Optical Depth at Locations off the U.S. East Coast in July and August 2001
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Airborne in situ measurements of vertical profiles of the aerosol light scattering coefficient, light absorption coefficient, and single scattering albedo (?0) are presented for locations off the East Coast of the United ...
Emissions from Ships with respect to Their Effects on Clouds
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Emissions of particles, gases, heat, and water vapor from ships are discussed with respect to their potential for changing the microstructure of marine stratiform clouds and producing the phenomenon known as ?ship tracks.? ...
