Large-eddy simulation of stratocumulus-topped boundary layer with an explicit and a new bulk microphysics scheme.
(1997)The realism of the model is evaluated by a direct comparison of the model predictions with the aircraft observations of the STBL. The first case study is based on the UKMRF flight 526 measurements collected over the North ... -
Modeling of the aerosol-cloud interactions in marine stratocumulus.
(1997)In order to study the cloud processing of aerosols, a two-parameter drop spectrum that depends on both the drop mass and the solute mass has been introduced into the CIMMS LES model. The aerosol processing due to condensation, ... -
Tropical climate stability, Hadley circulation, and deep cumulus convection: Vital synergism on a wet planet.
(2000)Important features of the proposed formulation for precipitating deep turbulent clouds include the ability to calculate precipitation efficiencies, a new postulation relating cumulus buoyancy to solar radiation, and the ... -
Ultragiant aerosol growth by collection within a warm continental cumulus congestus.
(1998)Results suggest that UGA are only marginally important for warm rain formation in a short-lived cloud such as that studied here. Although the cloud has a very high liquid water content $\rm ({>} 5\ g\ m\sp{-3})$ and the ...
