On the regional climatic impact of contrails: microphysical and radiative properties of contrails and natural cirrus clouds [PDF]

Annales Geophysicae, 1997
The impact of contrail-induced cirrus clouds on regional climate is estimated for mean atmospheric conditions of southern Germany in the months of July and October. This is done by use of a regionalized one-dimensional radiative convective model (RCM).

An Improved Point Clouds Model for Displacement Assessment of Slope Surface by Combining TLS and UAV Photogrammetry

Applied Sciences, 2022
TLS can quickly and accurately capture object surface coordinates. However, TLS point clouds cannot cover the entire surface of the target object, due to block of view and limitation of measurement condition.

Estimated cloud-top entrainment index explains positive low-cloud-cover feedback

Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 2022
How subtropical marine low cloud cover (LCC) will respond to global warming is a major source of uncertainty in future climate change. Although the estimated inversion strength (EIS) is a good predictive index of LCC, it has a serious limitation when applied to evaluate LCC changes due to warming: The LCC decreases despite increases in EIS

Emergent Motility of Self‐Organized Particle‐Giant Unilamellar Vesicle Assembly

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
Giant unilamellar vesicles (GUVs), when combined with silica particles under alternating electric fields, spontaneously self‐assemble into motile structures. Asymmetric particle decoration induces fluid flows that propel the assemblies, enabling persistent motion and reversible control.

A dataset for predicting cloud cover over Europe

Scientific Data
Clouds are important factors when projecting future climate. Unfortunately, future cloud fractional cover (the portion of the sky covered by clouds) is associated with significant uncertainty, making climate projections difficult.

Simulations of a cold-air pool associated with elevated wintertime ozone in the Uintah Basin, Utah [PDF]

Atmospheric Chemistry and Physics, 2015
Numerical simulations are used to investigate the meteorological characteristics of the 31 January–6 February 2013 cold-air pool in the Uintah Basin, Utah, and the resulting high ozone concentrations.

Local Interstellar Medium Kinematics towards the Southern Coalsack and Chamaeleon-Musca dark clouds

, 2003
The results of a spectroscopic programme aiming to investigate the kinematics of the local interstellar medium components towards the Southern Coalsack and Chamaeleon-Musca dark clouds are presented. The analysis is based upon high-resolution (R ~ 60,000)

The Fate of High-Velocity Clouds: Warm or Cold Cosmic Rain? [PDF]

, 2009
We present two sets of grid-based hydrodynamical simulations of high-velocity clouds (HVCs) traveling through the diffuse, hot Galactic halo. These HI clouds have been suggested to provide fuel for ongoing star formation in the Galactic disk.

Arresting Microphase Separation Encodes Material Mechanics by Sculpting Microarchitectures and Local Polymer Enrichment

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
Microarchitecture sculpting via phase separation programs hydrogel mechanics by creating globular, inverse globular, and spinodal structures. Spinodal architectures deliver superior toughness and energy dissipation, while ionic modulation through single polymer phase separation offers a simple, scalable route to tune mechanical properties ...
