Ground-Based Remote Sensing of Cloud Particle Sizes during the 26 November 1991 FIRE II Cirrus Case: Comparisons with In Situ Data
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The paper presents the results of retrieving characteristic particle sizes for the November 26 1991 FIRE II case using two methods that utilize ground-based remotes sensors. The size information for the complete vertical ...
Retrieval of Vertical Profiles of Cirrus Cloud Microphysical Parameters from Doppler Radar and Infrared Radiometer Measurements
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: This paper describes a new method to retrieve vertical profiles of the parameters of cirrus cloud microphysics that are important for the estimation of climatic feedback. These parameters are the particle characteristic ...
A Remote Sensing Method of Measuring Atmospheric Vapor Fluxes: Application to Winter Mountain Storms
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Vapor fluxes are calculated across a mountain barrier during two wintertime storms using a passive microwave radiometer and a Doppler radar. The vapor flux fields are shown to have complicated structures that are not ...
Multiwavelength Observations of a Developing Cloud System: The FIRE II 26 November 1991 Case Study
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Simultaneous multiwavelength measurements of a developing cloud system were obtained by NOAA Doppler lidar, Doppler radar, Fourier transform infrared interferometer, and microwave and infrared radiometers on 26 November ...
