Boundary-Layer Cumulus Over Land - ECMWF

This document describes a strategy for addressing the verification of cloud-top and base alti- tudes and cloud overlapping determined from EOS imager data ...







The Cloud-base Topography and Formation Condition of Cumulus ...
This paper presents an analysis of near coincident airborne in-situ cloud physics, W and X-band polarimetric radar and a. G-band 183 GHZ water vapour radiometer ...
Air Temperature With Flow Over a Mountain - Atmospheric Sciences
This is because a lower-gravity planet has larger water vapor content and more clouds, resulting in a larger clear-sky greenhouse effect and a ...
A New Data Base of Supercooled Cloud Variables for Altitudes up to ...
Convective cirrus clouds form from positive SPH perturbations, while non-convective cirrus are driven by negative temperature perturbations. ...
Thermal structure of intense convective clouds derived from GPS ...
This last uncertainty is probably the main cause for the difference in cloud base height since the long-term observations of St and Cu base heights over ocean ...
Clouds and the Earth's Radiant Energy System (CERES) Validation ...
[1] There is evidence that solar activity variations can affect the cloud cover at Earth. However, it is still unclear.
Characterization of supercooled and mixed phase clouds using ...
An aerological profile is a graph showing air temperature, dewpoint, and wind at different altitudes, derived from measurements or simulations.
Tropical cirrus clouds of convective and non-convective origins - ACP
Due to different temperatures and dew points at that altitude, the relative humidity distribution will differ from the surface. But the month to month ...
Estimates of cloud vertical structure and water amount over tropical ...
We also attempt to identify cloud biases at different altitudes and optical thickness according to different regimes of dynamical circulations ...
What is a aerological profile (sounding) ? - Soaringmeteo
Cloud top heights are mainly controlled by inversion layers, whereas the cloud base heights depend on the temperature and humidity conditions near the surface. ...
Relation between Cloud Cover and Relative Humidity
2. What kind (if any) clouds will you visually observe in different stable environments? In a shallow conditionally unstable or absolutely unstable.
Atmospheric Stability
explain the absence of this in CFMIP, however, is that mixed-phase clouds may form at higher altitudes, and similar local temperatures, in warmer climates ...
Temporal and vertical distributions of the occurrence of cirrus clouds ...
Low altitude stratiform clouds include stratus and nimbostratus. In North America, nimbostra- tus clouds often have low bases and are considered to be a low ...
