Dynamical Nighttime Fog/Low Stratus Detection Based on Meteosat SEVIRI Data: A Feasibility Study

Pure and Applied Geophysics, 2007
Automated detection of fog and low stratus in nighttime satellite data has been implemented on the basis of numerous satellite systems in past decades. Commonly, differences in small-droplet emissivities at 11μm and 3.9μm are utilized. With Meteosat SEVIRI, however, this method cannot be applied with a fixed threshold due to instrument design: The 3 ...

Airborne Droplet Sampler for Use in Fogs and Low-Level Stratus

Journal of Applied Meteorology, 1975
Abstract A light weight mechanical sampler is described which can be flown into fogs or stratus decks by means of a tethered kite balloon to obtain droplet size spectra at a precise altitude. This instrument has been compared with other devices in laboratory fogs and operated in marine fogs from the deck of a ship.

Mesoscale data assimilation and prediction of low stratus in the Alpine region

Meteorology and Atmospheric Physics, 1997
A number of problems related to mesoscale numerical prediction of low stratus in the Alpine region are formulated, and addressed in a series of experiments for two wintertime cases. These problems include modelling aspects and issues of data assimilation which are relevant particularly in relation to the observation nudging technique. A focus is on the

Fog/low stratus deck dispersal as a tool to enhance solar energy production

The Journal of Weather Modification, 2018
This paper explores the possible application of fog/low stratus deck dispersal techniques to enhance solar electricity potential. Weather modification via cloud seeding has been conducted for 70+ years and continues to evolve. This has included supercooled fog/low stratus dispersal/clearing, which is now considered operational. Despite being a moisture

Vertical profiles of drop size distributions in very low stratus clouds and associated subcloud regions

SPIE Proceedings, 1990
A microphysics model was used to simulate vertical profiles of drop size distributions in very low stratus clouds and their associated subcloud regions. Drop size distribution profiles produced by the model for two different sets of atmospheric conditions specified at a reference level are presented.
