Cloud Phase Structure: Experimental Data Analysis and Parameterization
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: In this article, the data collected over 6 yr of daily observations at a network of aircraft sounding (31 stations) in the former Soviet Union, and the data collected by Canadian researchers in field campaigns in the 1990s, ...
Zones of Increased and Decreased Droplet Concentration in Stratiform Clouds
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The finescale, spatial inhomogeneity of cloud-droplet concentration in stratiform clouds is studied using FSSP-100 data with 10-m or better resolution from 1700 km of cloud penetrations between +5° and ?20°C. The data are ...
Supersaturation and Diffusional Droplet Growth in Liquid Clouds
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: he process of collective diffusional growth of droplets in an adiabatic parcel ascending or descending with the constant vertical velocity is analyzed in the frame of the regular condensation approach. Closed equations for ...
Thermodynamics of Icing Cylinder for Measurements of Liquid Water Content in Supercooled Clouds
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The Rosemount Icing Detector (RICE) has been used extensively over the last three decades for aircraft measurements of the rate of ice riming in supercooled liquid and mixed clouds. Because of difficulties related to ...
