Three Different Behaviors of Liquid Water Path of Water Clouds in Aerosol–Cloud Interactions
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Estimates of the indirect aerosol effect in GCMs assume that either cloud liquid water path is constant (Twomey effect) or increases with increased droplet number concentration (drizzle-suppression or Albrecht effect). On ...
Numerical Simulation of Vertical Buoyant Wall Jet Discharged into a Linearly Stratified Environment
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Results are presented from a numerical simulation to investigate the vertical buoyant wall jet discharged into a linearly stratified environment. A tracer transport model considering density variation was implemented. The ...
Biogeography of Tropical Montane Cloud Forests. Part I: Remote Sensing of Cloud-Base Heights
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Cloud-base heights over tropical montane cloud forests are determined using Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS) cloud products and National Centers for Environmental Prediction global tropospheric final ...
