Cloud Microphysical Properties Retrieved from Downwelling Infrared Radiance Measurements Made at Eureka, Nunavut, Canada (2006–09)
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: he radiative properties of clouds are related to cloud microphysical and optical properties, including water path, optical depth, particle size, and thermodynamic phase. Ground-based observations from remote sensors provide ...
Dry Bias in Vaisala RS90 Radiosonde Humidity Profiles over Antarctica
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Middle to upper tropospheric humidity plays a large role in determining terrestrial outgoing longwave radiation. Much work has gone into improving the accuracy of humidity measurements made by radiosondes. Some radiosonde ...
High and Dry: New Observations of Tropospheric and Cloud Properties above the Greenland Ice Sheet
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: atmospheric properties strongly influence the mass and energy budgets of the Greenland Ice Sheet (GIS). To address critical gaps in the understanding of these systems, a new suite of cloud- and atmosphere-observing instruments ...
