Atmospheric Ice Particle Shape Estimates from Polarimetric Radar Measurements and In Situ Observations
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: AbstractA remote sensing approach to retrieve the degree of nonsphericity of ice hydrometeors using scanning polarimetric Ka-band radar measurements from a U.S. Department of Energy Atmospheric Radiation Measurement (ARM) ...
The Fall Speed Variability of Similarly Sized Ice Particle Aggregates
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: AbstractThe terminal velocity (Vt) of ice hydrometeors is of high importance to atmospheric modeling. Vt is governed by the physical characteristics of a hydrometeor, including mass and projected area, as well as environmental ...
A New Method for Ice–Ice Aggregation in the Adaptive Habit Model
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Classification of Ice Particle Shapes Using Machine Learning on Forward Light Scattering Images
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Microphysical Characterization of Boundary Layer Ice Particles: Results from a 3-Year Measurement Campaign in Interior Alaska
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Improvements in Shortwave Bulk Scattering and Absorption Models for the Remote Sensing of Ice Clouds
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: his study summarizes recent improvements in the development of bulk scattering/absorption models at solar wavelengths. The approach combines microphysical measurements from various field campaigns with single-scattering ...
The Ice Particle and Aggregate Simulator (IPAS). Part I: Extracting Dimensional Properties of Ice–Ice Aggregates for Microphysical Parameterization
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: AbstractAggregation, the process by which two or more ice particles attach to each other, is typically observed in clouds that span a range of temperatures and is influenced by the crystal shape (habit). In this study, the ...
Comparison of Modeled and Measured Ice Nucleating Particle Composition in a Cirrus Cloud
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: AbstractThe contribution of heterogeneous ice nucleation to the formation of cirrus cloud ice crystals is still not well quantified. This results in large uncertainties when predicting cirrus radiative effects and their ...
