Abstract: Data are presented, from a large collection of observations in wintertime clouds in Wyoming, which show that the fraction of cloud volumes from which significant radar polarimetric information can be obtained is small. For ...

Abstract: Based on observations made with an airborne 95-GHz polarimetric cloud radar and in situ microphysical probes, the dependence of ZDR and linear depolarization ratio (LDR) values on ice crystal type and radar beam orientation ...

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 ...

Abstract: Eddy covariance measurements of wind speed u and shear velocity u* from tower- and aircraft-based systems collected over rapidly developing corn- (Zea mays L.) and soybean [Glycine max (L.) Merr.] fields were used in ...

Abstract: he organized behavior of differential radar reflectivity (ZDR) is documented in the cold regions of a wide variety of stratiform precipitation types occurring in both winter and summer. The radar targets and attendant cloud ...

Abstract: s a component of Earth?s hydrologic cycle, and especially at higher latitudes, falling snow creates snowpack accumulation that in turn provides a large proportion of the freshwater resources required by many communities ...

Abstract: The Storm Studies in the Arctic (STAR) network (2007?2010) conducted a major meteorological field project from 10 October?30 November 2007 and in February 2008, focused on southern Baffin Island, Nunavut, Canada?a region ...

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 ...
