Estimation of Mixed-Phase Cloud Optical Depth and Position Using In Situ Radiation and Cloud Microphysical Measurements Obtained from a Tethered-Balloon Platform
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: icrophysical and radiative measurements in boundary layer mixed-phase clouds (MPCs), consisting of ice crystals and liquid droplets, have been analyzed. These cloud measurements were collected during a May?June 2008 ...
Secondary Ice Production: Current State of the Science and Recommendations for the Future
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: easured ice crystal concentrations in natural clouds at modest supercooling (temperature ~>?10°C) are often orders of magnitude greater than the number concentration of primary ice nucleating particles. Therefore, it has ...
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, ...
