A New Double-Moment Microphysics Parameterization for Application in Cloud and Climate Models. Part II: Single-Column Modeling of Arctic Clouds
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The new double-moment microphysics scheme described in Part I of this paper is implemented into a single-column model to simulate clouds and radiation observed during the period 1 April?15 May 1998 of the Surface Heat ...
An Arctic Springtime Mixed-Phase Cloudy Boundary Layer Observed during SHEBA
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The microphysical characteristics, radiative impact, and life cycle of a long-lived, surface-based mixed-layer, mixed-phase cloud with an average temperature of approximately ?20°C are presented and discussed. The cloud ...
Ocean–Cloud–Atmosphere–Land Interactions in the Southeastern Pacific: The VOCALS Program
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: nt paper describes the Variability of the American Monsoon Systems (VAMOS) Ocean?Cloud?Atmosphere?Land Study (VOCALS), an international research program focused on the improved understanding and modeling of the southeastern ...
The JASMINE Pilot Study
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The methods and initial results of an extensive pilot study, the Joint Air-Sea Monsoon Interaction Experiment (JASMINE) held in the Indian Ocean during the summer of 1999, are described. The experimental design was based ...
Rain in Shallow Cumulus Over the Ocean: The RICO Campaign
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Shallow, maritime cumuli are ubiquitous over much of the tropical oceans, and characterizing their properties is important to understanding weather and climate. The Rain in Cumulus over the Ocean (RICO) field campaign, ...
