Aerosol–Cloud Interactions in a Mesoscale Model. Part I: Sensitivity to Activation and Collision–Coalescence
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: High-resolution numerical simulations of the aerosol?cloud feedbacks are performed with a mesoscale model. The multimodal aerosol species, added to the model, and the cloud species were represented by two spectral moments. ...
Aerosol–Cloud Interactions in a Mesoscale Model. Part II: Sensitivity to Aqueous-Phase Chemistry
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The feedbacks between aerosols, cloud microphysics, and cloud chemistry are investigated in a mesoscale model. A simple bulk aqueous-phase sulfur chemistry scheme was fully coupled to the existing aerosol and microphysics ...
The Structure, Water Budget, and Radiational Features of a High-Latitude Warm Front
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: On 30 September 1994 an Arctic low pressure system passed over the southern Beaufort Sea area of northern Canada and research aircraft observations were made within and around the warm front of the storm. This study is ...
Modeling Study of Ice Formation in Warm-Based Precipitating Shallow Cumulus Clouds
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: bservations of large concentrations of ice particles in the dissipating stage of warm-based precipitating shallow cumulus clouds point to the limitations of scientists? understanding of the physics of such clouds and the ...
Impact of Clouds on the Shortwave Radiation Budget of the Surface-Atmosphere System for Snow-Covered Surfaces
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Recent data from the Earth Radiation Budget Experiment (ERBE) have raised the question as to whether or not the addition of clouds to the atmospheric column can decrease the top-of-the-atmosphere (TOA) albedo over bright ...
