Cloud Computing with iPlant Atmosphere

Current Protocols in Bioinformatics, 2013
AbstractCloud Computing refers to distributed computing platforms that use virtualization software to provide easy access to physical computing infrastructure and data storage, typically administered through a Web interface. Cloud‐based computing provides access to powerful servers, with specific software and virtual hardware configurations, while ...

Artificial Cloud Formation in the Atmosphere

Science, 1972
An artificial cloud in the cloudless atmosphere at a temperature below 0°C was formed by introducing pellets of Dry Ice into air containing more water vapor than would be present at the saturation point with respect to ice. Such clouds could be utilized to establish radiative equilibrium between ground and air so as to inhibit the cooling of selective ...

Interstellar and Atmospheric Clouds

Nature, 1970
WE wish to draw attention to a novel and striking similarity between the physics of two apparently quite disparate situations—the behaviour of the interstellar medium and of water vapour in an atmospheric cloud.

The physics of clouds in the atmosphere

Reports on Progress in Physics, 1983
Modern cloud physics research commenced in the 1940s with the practical goal of weather modification. Over the last 35 years our understanding of the microphysical properties of clouds has increased significantly but weather modification has not become widely established as an economically worthwhile technique for the enhancement of natural rainfall ...

Atmospheric electricity and aerosol-cloud interactions in earth’s atmosphere

AIP Conference Proceedings, 2013
Firstly, atmospheric ions play an important role in the fair weather electricity in Earth’s atmosphere. Small ions, or charged molecular clusters, carry electric currents in the atmosphere. These small ions are continuously present, and their lifetime in lower atmosphere is about one minute.

Atmospheric Brown Clouds

2016
Abstract Atmospheric brown clouds (ABCs) are widespread pollution clouds that can at times span an entire continent or an ocean basin. ABCs extend vertically from the ground upward to as high as 3 km, and they consist of both aerosols and gases.

Transient clouds in Titan's lower atmosphere

Nature, 1998
The 1980 encounter by the Voyager 1 spacecraft with Titan, Saturn's largest moon, revealed the presence of a thick atmosphere containing nitrogen and methane (1.4 and approximately 0.05 bar, respectively). Methane was found to be nearly saturated at Titan's tropopause, which, with other considerations, led to the hypothesis that Titan might experience ...
