Estimation of Errors in Two-Stream Approximations of the Solar Radiative Transfer Equation for Cloudy-Sky Conditions
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: olar flux densities and heating rates predicted by a broadband, multilayer δ-Eddington two-stream approximation are compared to estimates from a Monte Carlo model that uses detailed descriptions of cloud particle phase ...
Influence of Ice Particle Surface Roughening on the Global Cloud Radiative Effect
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: ce clouds influence the climate system by changing the radiation budget and large-scale circulation. Therefore, climate models need to have an accurate representation of ice clouds and their radiative effects. In this ...
