Spatial Variability of Satellite-retrieved Optical Depth and Effective Radius in Marine Stratocumulus Clouds
Several studies have shown that satellite-based passive remote sensing can provide information on τ , the cloud optical thickness (related to the extinction of the direct solar beam), reff , the surface area-weighted mean radius (or effective radius) and the vertically-integrated liquid water path ( (see, e.g. Han et al., 1994; Nakajima and Nakajima, 1995; Platnick and Valero, 1995; Han et al.,...
متن کاملThe effective neutrino charge radius
It is shown that at one-loop order a neutrino charge radius (NCR) may be defined, which is ultraviolet finite, does not depend on the gauge-fixing parameter, nor on properties of the target other than its electric charge. This is accomplished through the systematic decomposition of physical amplitudes into effective self-energies, vertices, and boxes, which separately respect electroweak gauge ...
متن کاملIce nucleation and overseeding of ice in volcanic clouds
[1] Water is the dominant component of volcanic gas emissions, and water phase transformations, including the formation of ice, can be significant in the dynamics of volcanic clouds. The effectiveness of volcanic ash particles as ice-forming nuclei (IN) is poorly understood and the sparse data that exist for volcanic ash IN have been interpreted in the context of meteorological, rather than vol...
متن کاملOn water ice formation in interstellar clouds
A model is proposed for the formation of water ice mantles on grains in interstellar clouds. This occurs by direct accretion of monomers from the gas, be they formed by gas or surface reactions. The formation of the first monolayer requires a minimum extinction of interstellar radiation, sufficient to lower the grain temperature to the point where thermal evaporation of monomers is just offset ...
متن کاملProduction of Ice in Tropospheric Clouds
25 hydrometeors in Earth’s atmosphere at any moment are liquid water, while the rest are ice. Though only a small percentage of the total condensed water in the troposphere, ice exerts an enormous infl uence on processes ranging from precipitation and cloud electrifi cation to radiative transfer. To understand and ultimately predict these processes, we must understand the ways in which ice form...
