Atmospheric ionization and cloud radiative forcing
Atmospheric ionization produced by cosmic rays has been suspected to influence aerosols and clouds, but its actual importance has been questioned. If changes in atmospheric ionization have a substantial impact on clouds, one would expect to observe ...

Determination of the Dynamics of Thunderstorms Through the Dry Adiabatic Lapse Rate and Environmental Lapse Rate [PDF]
This research aims to determine the types of thunderstorms formed in the thickness of the cloud (determine the Dry adiabatic lapse rate (DALR) and Environmental lapse rate (ELR)) in the case of precipitation during the day. Data were taken by Temperature,

Practical Implications of CLIMCAPS Cloud Clearing and Derived Quality Metrics
Clouds present one of the largest sources of uncertainty in infrared (IR) measurements of the vertical atmospheric state. Hyperspectral instruments onboard Earth orbiting satellites, such as the Atmospheric Infrared Sounder (AIRS) on Aqua (2002–present),

Cloud climatologies from the infrared sounders AIRS and IASI: strengths and applications [PDF]
Global cloud climatologies have been built from 13 years of Atmospheric Infrared Sounder (AIRS) and 8 years of Infrared Atmospheric Sounding Interferometer (IASI) observations, using an updated Clouds from Infrared Sounders (CIRS) retrieval.

The Influence of Cloud Condensation Nucleus Coagulation on the Venus Cloud Structure
We present the Venus version of PlanetCARMA and demonstrate the significance of coagulation properties on the structure of the Venus cloud system. The composition of the smallest mode of particles in the Venus atmosphere, which likely serve as cloud ...
