Small-Scale Variability in Warm Continental Cumulus Clouds
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: We have analyzed small-scale fluctuations in microphysical, dynamical and thermodynamical parameters measured in two warm cumulus clouds during the Cooperative Convective Precipitation Experiment (CCOPE) project (1981) in ...
Turbulent Mixing, Spectral Evolution and Dynamics in a Warm Cumulus Cloud
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The analysis of Paluch suggests that some cumuli contain cloudy air from only two sources: cloud base and cloud top. A framework is presented for the investigation of droplet spectral evolution in clouds composed of air ...
Spectral Density of Cloud Liquid Water Content at High Frequencies
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Aircraft measurements of liquid water content (LWC) made at sampling frequencies of 1 and 2 kHz with a particle volume monitor (PVM) probe from horizontal traverses in stratocumulus clouds during the Southern Ocean Cloud ...
Rain in Shallow Cumulus Over the Ocean: The RICO Campaign
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Shallow, maritime cumuli are ubiquitous over much of the tropical oceans, and characterizing their properties is important to understanding weather and climate. The Rain in Cumulus over the Ocean (RICO) field campaign, ...
The Convective Transport of Active Species in the Tropics (CONTRAST) Experiment
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: he Convective Transport of Active Species in the Tropics (CONTRAST) experiment was conducted from Guam (13.5°N, 144.8°E) during January?February 2014. Using the NSF/NCAR Gulfstream V research aircraft, the experiment ...
