Recommendations for Improving U.S. NSF-Supported Airborne Microwave Radiometry
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Evaluation of ECMWF Radiation Scheme Using Aircraft Observations of Spectral Irradiance above Clouds
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: A novel approach to compare airborne observations of solar spectral irradiances measured above clouds with along-track radiative transfer simulations (RTS) is presented. The irradiance measurements were obtained with the ...
Radiative Transfer Simulations Using Mesoscale Cloud Model Outputs: Comparisons with Passive Microwave and Infrared Satellite Observations for Midlatitudes
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Real midlatitude meteorological cases are simulated over western Europe with the cloud mesoscale model Méso-NH, and the outputs are used to calculate brightness temperatures at microwave frequencies with the Atmospheric ...
A Midlatitude Precipitating Cloud Database Validated with Satellite Observations
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The simulations of five midlatitude precipitating events by the nonhydrostatic mesoscale model Méso-NH are analyzed. These cases cover contrasted precipitation situations from 30° to 60°N, which are typical of midlatitudes. ...
Diurnal Winds in the Himalayan Kali Gandaki Valley. Part III: Remotely Piloted Aircraft Soundings
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: In 1998 a field campaign has been conducted in the north?south-oriented Kali Gandaki valley in Nepal to explore the structure of its extreme valley wind system. Piloted ballon (pibal) observations were made to map the ...
The Arctic Cloud Puzzle: Using ACLOUD/PASCAL Multiplatform Observations to Unravel the Role of Clouds and Aerosol Particles in Arctic Amplification
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: AbstractClouds play an important role in Arctic amplification. This term represents the recently observed enhanced warming of the Arctic relative to the global increase of near-surface air temperature. However, there are ...
Atmospheric Gas Absorption Knowledge in the Submillimeter: Modeling, Field Measurements, and Uncertainty Quantification

The North Atlantic Waveguide and Downstream Impact Experiment
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: AbstractThe North Atlantic Waveguide and Downstream Impact Experiment (NAWDEX) explored the impact of diabatic processes on disturbances of the jet stream and their influence on downstream high-impact weather through the ...
