RISThe Effect of Decoupled Low-Level Flow on Winter Orographic Clouds and Precipitation in the Yampa River Valley
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Mountains often act as barriers to low-level flow creating regions of stagnant, decoupled flow within thermally stratified air masses. This paper addresses the question: how does a region of low-level decoupled flow affect ...
Ice in Clouds Experiment–Layer Clouds. Part II: Testing Characteristics of Heterogeneous Ice Formation in Lee Wave Clouds
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: eterogeneous ice nucleation is a source of uncertainty in models that represent ice clouds. The primary goal of the Ice in Clouds Experiment?Layer Clouds (ICE-L) field campaign was to determine if a link can be demonstrated ...
Ice Initiation by Aerosol Particles: Measured and Predicted Ice Nuclei Concentrations versus Measured Ice Crystal Concentrations in an Orographic Wave Cloud
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The initiation of ice in an isolated orographic wave cloud was compared with expectations based on ice nucleating aerosol concentrations and with predictions from new ice nucleation parameterizations applied in a cloud ...
FIRE Arctic Clouds Experiment
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: An overview is given of the First ISCCP Regional Experiment Arctic Clouds Experiment that was conductedduring April?July 1998. The principal goal of the field experiment was to gather the data needed to examine the impactof ...
Dynamics and Chemistry of Marine Stratocumulus—DYCOMS-II
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The second Dynamics and Chemistry of Marine Stratocumulus (DYCOMS-II) field study is described. The field program consisted of nine flights in marine stratocumulus west-southwest of San Diego, California. The objective of ...

Rain in Shallow Cumulus Over the Ocean: The RICO Campaign
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Shallow, maritime cumuli are ubiquitous over much of the tropical oceans, and characterizing their properties is important to understanding weather and climate. The Rain in Cumulus over the Ocean (RICO) field campaign, ...
