A Numerical and Experimental Study on the Fabrication GaN Films by Chemical Vapor Deposition
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Computational modeling and simulation are employed to study a rotating susceptor vertical impinging chemical vapor deposition (CVD) reactor to predict GaN film deposition. Many metal-organic chemical vapor deposition reactor ...
Interannual Variability of the Antarctic Ozone Hole in a GCM. Part I: The Influence of Tropospheric Wave Variability
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: To study the interannual variability of the Antarctic ozone hole, a physically realistic parameterization of the chemistry responsible for severe polar ozone loss has been included in the GISS GCM. The ensuing ozone hole ...
Temporal and Spatial Characteristics of Short-Term Cloud Feedback on Global and Local Interannual Climate Fluctuations from A-Train Observations
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: AbstractObservations from multiple sensors on the NASA Aqua satellite are used to estimate the temporal and spatial variability of short-term cloud responses (CR) and cloud feedbacks ? for different cloud types, with respect ...
Uncertainty of Atmospheric Winds in Three Widely Used Global Reanalysis Datasets
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Cloud-State-Dependent Sampling in AIRS Observations Based on CloudSat Cloud Classification
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: he precision, accuracy, and potential sampling biases of temperature T and water vapor q vertical profiles obtained by satellite infrared sounding instruments are highly cloud-state dependent and poorly quantified. The ...
Maintenance of Lower Tropospheric Temperature Inversion in the Saharan Air Layer by Dust and Dry Anomaly
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The role of Saharan dust and dry anomaly in maintaining the temperature inversion in the Saharan air layer (SAL) is investigated. The dust aerosol optical thickness (AOT) in the SAL is inferred from the measurements taken ...
Local Balance and Variability of Atmospheric Heat Budget over Oceans: Observation and Reanalysis-Based Estimates
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: he authors quantify systematic differences between modern observation- and reanalysis-based estimates of atmospheric heating rates and identify dominant variability modes over tropical oceans. Convergence of heat fluxes ...
Modulation of Marine Low Clouds Associated with the Tropical Intraseasonal Variability over the Eastern Pacific
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: wing to its profound influences on global energy balance, accurate representation of low cloud variability in climate models is an urgent need for future climate projection. In the present study, marine low cloud variability ...
The Apparent Water Vapor Sinks and Heat Sources Associated with the Intraseasonal Oscillation of the Indian Summer Monsoon
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: he possibility of using remote sensing retrievals to estimate apparent water vapor sinks and heat sources is explored. The apparent water vapor sinks and heat sources are estimated from a combination of remote sensing, ...
Closing the Global Water Vapor Budget with AIRS Water Vapor, MERRA Reanalysis, TRMM and GPCP Precipitation, and GSSTF Surface Evaporation
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: he authors investigate if atmospheric water vapor from remote sensing retrievals obtained from the Atmospheric Infrared Sounder/Advanced Microwave Sounding Unit (AIRS) and the water vapor budget from the NASA Goddard Space ...
