Abstract: he nucleation of cloud droplets from the ambient aerosol is a critical physical process that must be resolved for global models to faithfully predict aerosol?cloud interactions and aerosol indirect effects on climate. To ...

Abstract: revious studies on the response of the South Asian summer monsoon to the direct radiative forcing caused by anthropogenic absorbing aerosols have emphasized the role of premonsoonal aerosol forcing. This study examines the ...

Abstract: uel usage is an important driver of anthropogenic aerosol emissions. In Asia, it is possible that aerosol emissions may increase if business continues as usual, with economic growth driving an increase in coal burning. But ...

Abstract: he direct radiative effect of absorbing aerosols consists of absorption-induced atmospheric heating together with scattering- and absorption-induced surface cooling. It is thus important to understand whether some of the ...

Abstract: Large concentrations of small aerosols have been previously observed in the vicinity of anvils of convective clouds. A 3D cloud-resolving model (CRM) including an explicit size-resolving aerosol module has been used to ...

Abstract: This paper investigates the effect of long-range interaction forces in the longitudinal vibration of an axial linear elastic lattice. The eigenfrequencies of this axial lattice with direct and indirect linear elastic ...

Abstract: A VHF pulsed radar system was set up on the Taoyuan County seashore (24°57?58?N, 121°00?30?E; Taiwan) to observe the sea surface in the northern Taiwan Strait for the first time. The radar used a four-element, vertically ...
