Abstract:An ensemble-average closure model intended for mesoscale studies is applied to a marine stratocumulus-capped PBL. The intention is to test this model, in particular, for cases where cloud and subcloud layers are decoupled. The test is based on one case from the First ISCCP Regional Experiment, where solid cloud-capped and clear sky areas were found in close proximity.

Abstract:A detailed 1D model of the stratocumulus-topped marine boundary layer is described. The model has three coupled components: a microphysics module that resolves the size distributions of aerosols and cloud droplets, a turbulence module that treats vertical mixing between layers, and a multiple wavelength radiative transfer module that calculates radiative heating rates and cloud optical properties.

Abstract:The spatial and temporal variability of precipitating stratocumulus layers is examined using aircraft observations, satellite retrievals of cloud optical depth, and one-dimensional models that include coalescence and a simple representation of layer turbulence. The aircraft observations show large horizontal variations in cloud thickness and precipitation, with local rain rates 4-5 times larger than the replacement moisture flux, and evidence for precipitation scavenging of small cloud droplet

Abstract:Cloud fraction is a widely used parameter for estimating the effects of boundary-layer cloud on radiative transfer. During the Atlantic Stratocumulus Transition Experiment (ASTEX) during June 1992, ceilometer and satellite-based measurements of boundary-layer cloud fraction were made in the subtropical North Atlantic, a region typified by a 1-2km deep marine boundary layer with cumulus clouds rising into a broken stratocumulus layer underneath an inversion.

Abstract:The relationship between boundary-layer thermodynamic structure and cloud fields and their diurnal variation are explored using seven days of data from the R/V Valdivia during the Atlantic Stratocumulus Transition Experiment. Cloudiness is at a maximum before dawn, when the boundary layer (BL) has the thermodynamic structure of a partially mixed, conditionally unstable stratocumulus layer, which is close to mean saturation below the inversion.

The measurements made from a C-130 aircraft, belonging to the Meteorological Research Flight, on the night of 12-13 June 1992 show that the convection in the boundary layer is driven both by longwave radiative cooling at cloud top and by the surface buoyancy flux.

Abstract:Isolated cumuli penetrating through marine stratocumulus clouds were documented during the Atlantic Stratocumulus Transition Experiment. This paper aims at understanding the role of the penetrating cumulus in regulating stratocumulus and boundary-layer structure through analysis of data from the NCAR Electra aircraft. When penetrating cumulus clouds are present, the boundary layer is generally decoupled from the near-surface air except in the cumulus region.

Abstract:Data are used from a K-sub-alpha-band radar and microwave radiometer along with a droplet model to determine the droplet parameters of drizzle and clouds. Drizzle droplet parameters are determined from the zeroth, first, and second moments of the Doppler spectrum. Cloud droplet parameters are determined from the zeroth moment of the Doppler spectrum and the measured integrated liquid water.

Publication:Q.J.R. Meteor. Soc., 118, 507, 787-818.
Abstract:Buoyancy reversal occurs between two homogeneous fluids when as a result of non-linear mixing the mixture becomes denser than either of the fluids. In 1980 both Randall and Deardorff suggested that such non-linear mixing could create an entrainment instability

Abstract:A two-dimensional eddy-resolving model is used to study the transition from the stratocumulus topped boundary layer to the trade cumulus boundary layer. The 10-day simulations use an idealized Lagrangian trajectory representative of summertime climatological conditions in the subtropical northeastern Pacific.

Title:An extension of cloud-radiation parameterization in the ECMWF model: The representation of subgrid-scale variations of optical depth.
Publication:Mon. Wea. Rev., 124, 4, 745-750
Abstract:Current climate and forecast models treat clouds as plane-uniform, ignoring subgrid-scale variations of cloud water content in radiative transfer calculations. The plane-uniform assumption is relaxed in a new cloud-radiation parameterization that considers cloud inhomogeneities and heterogeneities associated with the convective and stratform cloudiness.

Abstract:Hypotheses regarding the control of radiatively important marine boundary layer clouds fall broadly into two groups: those focused on the effects of cloud microphysical impacts, and those concerned with the environment in which the clouds evolve. Reconciling model results and observations in an effort to develop parameterizations of cloud optical properties has been made difficult by the fact that marine boundary layer clouds are not in equilibrium with their local environment.

Abstract:Cloud physics has grown up with concentrated efforts focused on compartmentalized topocs in the subject, where researchers have studied specific problems with little regard to other areas. The developing understanding of turbulent entrainment and the understanding that turbulence is best described in the atmosphere by circulating self-contained entities, which are often buoyant and carry fluid from one level to another, has led to a unifying picture of clouds wherein all clouds and convective processes can be seen as one phenomenon in which various conditions decide the final form.
