The Diurnal Cycle of Cloud-Top Height and Cloud Cover over the Southeastern Pacific as Observed by GOES-10
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: he diurnal cycles in cloud-top height Htop and cloud fraction (CF) in the southeastern Pacific stratocumulus region were determined for October?November 2008 by analyzing data from Geostationary Operational Environmental ...
Stratocumulus Cloud-Top Height Estimates and Their Climatic Implications
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: A depth-dependent boundary layer lapse rate was empirically deduced from 156 radiosondes released during six month-long research cruises to the southeast Pacific sampling a variety of stratocumulus conditions. The lapse-rate ...
Southeast Pacific Stratocumulus: High-Frequency Variability and Mesoscale Structures over San Félix Island
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Stratocumulus cloud cover patterns and their relationship to drizzle were characterized at San Felix Island (SFI; 26.5°S, 80°W) in the southeast Pacific Ocean. Small closed, large closed, and open cells were identified in ...

Mean Structure and Diurnal Cycle of Southeast Atlantic Boundary Layer Clouds: Insights from Satellite Observations and Multiscale Modeling Framework Simulations
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: he mean structure and diurnal cycle of southeast (SE) Atlantic boundary layer clouds are described with satellite observations and multiscale modeling framework (MMF) simulations during austral spring (September?November). ...
