Sensitivity Studies of Aerosol–Cloud Interactions in Mixed-Phase Orographic Precipitation
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Anthropogenic aerosols serve as a source of both cloud condensation nuclei (CCN) and ice nuclei (IN) and affect microphysical properties of clouds. Increasing aerosol number concentration is assumed to retard the cloud ...
Sensitivity Studies of the Role of Aerosols in Warm-Phase Orographic Precipitation in Different Dynamical Flow Regimes
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Aerosols serve as a source of cloud condensation nuclei (CCN) and influence the microphysical properties of clouds. In the case of orographic clouds, it is suspected that aerosol?cloud interactions reduce the amount of ...
Application and Comparison of Robust Linear Regression Methods for Trend Estimation
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: In this study, robust parametric regression methods are applied to temperature and precipitation time series in Switzerland and the trend results are compared with trends from classical least squares (LS) regression and ...
Statistical Analysis of Aerosol Effects on Simulated Mixed-Phase Clouds and Precipitation in the Alps
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: ncreasing the aerosol number in warm-phase clouds is thought to decrease the rain formation rate, whereas the physical processes taking place in mixed-phase clouds are more uncertain. Increasing number concentrations of ...
