Water Ice Cloud Feedbacks over the North Polar Residual Cap at Moderate Obliquity [PDF]

open access: yes
Several global climate modeling studies have now shown that water ice clouds can warm the surface 10s of K at moderate obliquities [1,2,3]. Significant greenhouse warming occurs because the predicted clouds are optically thick, the cloud particles are ...

Observations of shallow convective clouds generated by solar heating of dark smoke plumes [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
The SEVIRI instrument on the Meteosat Second Generation satellite with both fine spatial and temporal resolution allows to detect and follow the dynamics of fast developing meteorological events like spreading smoke plumes and the lifecycles of ...

Coastal Tropical Convection in a Stochastic Modeling Framework

open access: yes, 2017
Recent research has suggested that the overall dependence of convection near coasts on large-scale atmospheric conditions is weaker than over the open ocean or inland areas. This is due to the fact that in coastal regions convection is often supported by

Clouds as atmospheric oases

open access: yes, 2022
L'atmosphère extérieure est un environnement complexe et dynamique abritant des assemblages microbiens de divers micro-organismes aérosolisés provenant de sources locales et lointaines. Ils peuvent être transportés jusqu'à de hautes altitudes et incorporer des nuages.

Earth as an Exoplanet: Investigating the Effects of Cloud Variability on the Direct-imaging of Atmospheres

open access: yesThe Planetary Science Journal
A planet’s spectrum is dynamic and only represents a time-dependent snapshot of its properties. Changing atmospheric conditions due to climate and weather patterns, particularly variation in cloud cover, can significantly affect the spectrum in ways that

Determination of atmospheric moisture structure and infrared cooling rates from high resolution MAMS radiance data [PDF]

open access: yes
This program has applied Multispectral Atmospheric Mapping Sensor (MAMS) high resolution data to the problem of monitoring atmospheric quantities of moisture and radiative flux at small spatial scales.

The Dependence of Brown Dwarf Radii on Atmospheric Metallicity and Clouds: Theory and Comparison with Observations

open access: yes, 2011
Employing realistic and consistent atmosphere boundary conditions, we have generated evolutionary models for brown dwarfs and very-low-mass stars (VLMs) for different metallicities ([Fe/H]), with and without clouds. We find that the spread in radius at a

Observation of Multilayer Clouds and Their Climate Effects: A Review

open access: yesAtmosphere
Multilayer clouds, comprising vertically stacked cloud layers with distinct microphysical characteristics, constitute a critical yet complex atmospheric phenomenon influencing regional to global climate patterns.

Subpollen Particles as Atmospheric Cloud Condensation Nuclei

open access: yesIzvestiya, Atmospheric and Oceanic Physics, 2019
Bioparticles represent a significant fraction of the total atmospheric aerosol. Their size range varies from nanometers (macromolecules) to hundreds of micrometers (plant pollen, vegetation residues) and like other atmospheric aerosol particles, the degree of involvement of bioaerosols in atmospheric processes largely de- pends on their hygroscopic and

Modeling interannual variability in the Martian seasonal CO2 cycle [PDF]

open access: yes
One aspect of the seasonal pressure variations measured at the Viking Lander sites is their nearly perfect interannual repeatability. This presents a problem because it implies that the behavior of the seasonal polar caps should be highly repeatable from
