RISRelative Humidity in Liquid, Mixed-Phase, and Ice Clouds
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The results of in situ observations of the relative humidity in liquid, mixed, and ice clouds typically stratiform in nature and associated with mesoscale frontal systems at temperatures ?45°C < Ta < ?5°C are presented. ...
Shattering during Sampling by OAPs and HVPS. Part I: Snow Particles
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The data on cloud particle sizes and concentrations collected with the help of aircraft imaging probes [optical array probes OAP-2DC, OAP-2DP, and the High Volume Precipitation Spectrometer (HVPS)] are widely used for cloud ...

Drop Growth Due to High Supersaturation Caused by Isobaric Mixing
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: A new conceptual model is proposed for enhanced cloud droplet growth during condensation. Rapid droplet growth may occur in zones of high supersaturation resulting from isobaric mixing of saturated volumes with different ...
Aircraft Icing Study Using Integrated Observations and Model Data
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: AbstractLight (LGT) to moderate (MOD) aircraft icing (AI) is frequently reported at Cold Lake, Alberta, but forecasting AI has been a big challenge. The purpose of this study is to investigate and understand the weather ...
Characterization of Aircraft Icing Environments with Supercooled Large Drops for Application to Commercial Aircraft Certification
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: bservations of aircraft icing environments that included supercooled large drops (SLD) greater than 100 ?m in diameter have been analyzed. The observations were collected by instrumented research aircraft from 134 flights ...
Verification of Supercooled Cloud Water Forecasts with In Situ Aircraft Measurements
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: In situ measurements of temperature (Ta), horizontal wind speed (V), dewpoint (Td), total water content (TWC), and cloud and supercooled cloud water (SCW) events, made during 50 flights from three research field programs, ...
Performance of Hot Plate for Measuring Solid Precipitation in Complex Terrain during the 2010 Vancouver Winter Olympics
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: olid precipitation intensity, snow density, wind speed, and temperature were collected from November 2009 to February 2010 at a naturally sheltered station located at an altitude of 1640 m MSL on Whistler Mountain in British ...
Assessing the Rosemount Icing Detector with In Situ Measurements
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: In situ measurements of microphysics conditions, obtained during 38 research flights into winter storms, have been used to characterize the performance of a Rosemount Icing Detector (RID). Characteristics of the RID were ...
Aircraft Icing Measurements in East Coast Winter Storms
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Analysis of the aircraft icing environments of East Coast winter storms have been made from 3 1 flights duringthe second Canadian Atlantic Storms Program. Microphysical parameters have been summarized and are compared to ...
