RISClimatology of Warm Boundary Layer Clouds at the ARM SGP Site and Their Comparison to Models
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: A 4-yr climatology (1997?2000) of warm boundary layer cloud properties is developed for the U.S. Department of Energy Atmospheric Radiation Measurement (ARM) Program Southern Great Plains (SGP) site. Parameters in the ...
Importance of Accurate Liquid Water Path for Estimation of Solar Radiation in Warm Boundary Layer Clouds: An Observational Study
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: A 1-yr observational study of overcast boundary layer stratus at the U.S. Department of Energy Atmospheric Radiation Measurement Program Southern Great Plains site illustrates that surface radiation has a higher sensitivity ...

Estimating Three-Dimensional Cloud Structure via Statistically Blended Satellite Observations
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: he launch of the NASA CloudSat in April 2006 enabled the first satellite-based global observation of vertically resolved cloud information. However, CloudSat?s nonscanning W-band (94 GHz) Cloud Profiling Radar (CPR) provides ...
An Evaluation of Five ARW-WRF Microphysics Schemes Using Synthetic GOES Imagery for an Atmospheric River Event Affecting the California Coast
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: he main purpose of the present study is to assess the value of synthetic satellite imagery as a tool for model evaluation performance in addition to more traditional approaches. For this purpose, synthetic GOES-10 imagery ...
Building the Sun4Cast System: Improvements in Solar Power Forecasting
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: AbstractAs integration of solar power into the national electric grid rapidly increases, it becomes imperative to improve forecasting of this highly variable renewable resource. Thus, a team of researchers from the public, ...
