Abstract: Any population of cloud droplets forming on polydisperse condensation nuclei is thermodynamically unstable. There is no value of the supersaturation for which the growth rate of all the droplets is zero, so that if some ...

Abstract: A system has been developed for use on a light aircraft for the measurement of the turbulent wind vector components that does not rely on the use of either an inertial navigation system (INS) or Doppler radar. The system ...

Abstract: Decoupling of the marine boundary layer beneath stratocumulus clouds and the formation of cumulus clouds at the top of a surface-based mixed layer (SML) have frequently been observed and modeled. When such cumulus clouds ...
