Journal of Advances in Modeling Earth Systems, 2021 Reducing the model spread in free‐tropospheric relative humidity (RH) and its response to warming is a crucial step toward reducing the uncertainty in clear‐sky climate sensitivity, a step that is hoped to be taken with recently developed global storm ...

Outgoing longwave radiation and cloud radiative forcing of the Tibetan Plateau [PDF]
Journal of Geophysical Research: Atmospheres, 2000 In order to study the energy balance and the cloud radiative forcing (CRF) of the Tibetan Plateau in detail, 2 years of GMS5 satellite data are employed to analyze the monthly mean outgoing longwave radiation (OLR) and CRF. It should be noted that the temporal resolution of GMS5 data is 1 hour, so the data can be used to study the diurnal variations of

Quarterly Journal of the Royal Meteorological Society, EarlyView.(a) Organized convection: clouds are clustered at the southern edge of the domain, aligning with the warmest SST. Northeasterly winds prevail, facilitating convection confinement to the southern part of the domain. (b) ITCZ breakdown: the clouds are spread throughout the domain.

Estimation of Downwelling Surface Longwave Radiation under Heavy Dust Aerosol Sky
Remote Sensing, 2017 The variation of aerosols, especially dust aerosol, in time and space plays an important role in climate forcing studies. Aerosols can effectively reduce land surface longwave emission and re-emit energy at a colder temperature, which makes it difficult ...

First Observations of Cirrus Clouds Using the UZ Mie Lidar over uMhlathuze City, South Africa
Applied Sciences, 2022 Clouds cover more than two-thirds of the earth’s surface and play a dominant role in the energy and water cycle of our planet. Cirrus clouds are high-level clouds composed mostly of ice crystals and affect the earth’s radiation allocation mainly by ...

Microclimf: Fast modelling of microclimate across real landscapes in R
Methods in Ecology and Evolution, EarlyView.Abstract Many ecological studies require climate data, but readily available datasets are poor surrogates for the conditions that organisms experience in nature. Understanding the climatic conditions experienced by organisms requires modelling microclimate rather than relying on coarse, station‐based climate data.

Remote sensing of earth’s energy budget: synthesis and review
International Journal of Digital Earth, 2019 The Earth’s climate is largely determined by its energy budget. Since the 1960s, satellite remote sensing has been used in estimating these energy budget components at both the top of the atmosphere (TOA) and the surface.

Impact of solar reflectance of wall and road on outdoor thermal comfort - experimental study in a street canyon setup [PDF]
MATEC Web of Conferences, 2019 Thermal environment in an urban street canyon is primarily affected by prevailing air conditions, wind flow, solar radiation as well as thermal properties of the surrounding urban structures and pavement surfaces that affect the reflection, absorption ...
