Climate impact assessment of varying cruise flight altitudes applying the CATS simulation approach

, 2011
The present paper describes a comprehensive assessment and modelling approach that was developed in the DLR project Climate compatible Air Transport System (CATS) with the goal to analyze different options to reduce the climate impact of aviation.

Cirrus Cloud Properties From a Cloud-Resolving Model

, 2002
Cloud radar data collected at the Atmospheric Radiation Measurement (ARM) Program's Southern Great Plains site were used to evaluate the properties of cirrus clouds that occurred in a cloud-resolving model (CRM) simulation of the 29-day Summer 1997 ...

Cirrus Cloud Optical and Morphological Variations within a Mesoscale Volume

, 1996
Cirrus cloud optical and structural properties were measured above southern Wisconsin in two time segments between 18:07 and 21:20 GMT on December 1, 1989 by the volume imaging lidar (VIL) and the High Spectral Resolution Lidar (HSRL) and the visible ...

Microphysical fundamentals governing cirrus cloud growth: Modeling studies

, 1990
For application to Global Climate Models, large scale numerical models of cirrus cloud formation and maintenance need to be refined to more reliably simulate the effects and feedbacks of high level clouds.
