Extratropical Transition of Hurricane Michael: An Aircraft Investigation
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: In order to better understand the behavior and impacts of tropical cyclones undergoing extratropical transition (ET), the Meteorological Service of Canada (MSC) conducted a test flight into Hurricane Michael. Between 16 ...
Hydrated and Dried Aerosol-Size-Distribution Measurements from the Particle Measuring Systems FSSP-300 Probe and the Deiced PCASP-100X Probe
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Comparisons of particle-size distributions measured by Particle Measuring Systems FSSP-300 and PCASP-100X probes through a range of relative humidities reveal that the deiced PCASP-100X probe dries hydrated submicron ...
An Example of Supercooled Drizzle Drops Formed through a Collision-Coalescence Process
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The microphysics associated with observations of supercooled drizzle drops, which formed through a condensation and collision-coalescence process, are reported and discussed. The growth environment was an 1100-m-thick ...
Characterizations of Aircraft Icing Environments that Include Supercooled Large Drops
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Measurements of aircraft icing environments that include supercooled large drops (SLD) greater than 50 ?m in diameter have been made during 38 research flights. These flights were conducted during the First and Third ...
An Examination of Local versus Nonlocal Aspects of a TKE-Based Boundary Layer Scheme in Clear Convective Conditions
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: In this study, the ability of a turbulent kinetic energy (TKE)?based boundary layer scheme to reproduce the rapid evolution of the planetary boundary layer (PBL) observed during two clear convective days is examined together ...
Laboratory Measurements of the Response of a PMS OAP-2DC
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Laboratory measurements of the response of the Particle Measuring Systems, Inc., 2DC probe have been conducted to characterize counting and sizing errors of the probe for spherical particles. Measurements of the shadow ...
Assessing Cloud-Phase Conditions
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: In situ microphysics measurements made during the First and Third Canadian Freezing Drizzle Experiments (CFDE I and III, respectively) have been used to assess the relative responses to ice and liquid hydrometeors for ...
Indirect and Semi-direct Aerosol Campaign
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: A comprehensive dataset of microphysical and radiative properties of aerosols and clouds in the boundary layer in the vicinity of Barrow, Alaska, was collected in April 2008 during the Indirect and Semi-Direct Aerosol ...
