Wavelet analysis of turbulence in cirrus clouds
Two ̄ights of the UKMeteorological Oce's Hercules aircraft through daytime frontal cirrus around Scotland have been analysed using wavelet analysis on the vertical velocity time-series from the horizontal runs. It is shown that wavelet analysis is a useful tool for analysing the turbulence data in cirrus clouds. It ®nds the largest scales involved in producing turbulence, as does Fourier analy...
متن کاملCirrus clouds in a global climate model with a statistical cirrus cloud scheme
In addition to the new cirrus cloud scheme described in Sect. 2.2, a prognostic cloud droplet number concentration (nl) equation for liquid clouds is added in the version of CAM3 used in this study compared with the version used in Liu et al. (2007a). Together with the prognostic liquid water mass (ql), ice water mass (qi), and ice crystal number concentration (ni), the complete set of equation...
متن کاملMidlatitude Cirrus Clouds and Multiple Tropopauses from a 2002-2006 Climatology over the SIRTA Observatory
This study present a comparison of lidar observations of midlatitude cirrus clouds over the SIRTA observatory between 2002 and 2006 with multiple tropopauses (MT) retrieved from radiosounding temperature profiles. The temporal variability of MT properties (frequency, thickness) are discussed. Results show a marked annual cycle, with MT frequency reaching its lowest point in May (~18% occurrence...
متن کاملCan cirrus clouds produce glories?
A vague glory display was photographed over central Utah from an airplane beginning its descent through a cirrus cloud layer with an estimated cloud top temperature of -45 and -55 degrees C. Photographic analysis reveals a single reddish-brown ring of 2.5-3.0 degrees radius around the antisolar point, although a second ring appeared visually to have been present over the brief observation perio...
متن کاملLaser transmission-backscattering through inhomogeneous cirrus clouds.
We have developed a two-dimensional (2D) model for inhomogeneous cirrus clouds in plane-parallel and spherical geometries for the analysis of the transmission and backscattering of high-energy laser beams. The 2D extinction-coefficient and mean effective ice-crystal size fields for cirrus clouds can be determined from a combination of the remote sensing of cirrus clouds by use of the Advanced V...
