Not exact matches
The radio jets compress clouds of gas along their path and heat up water molecules contained within the clouds until they emit radiation.
Del Genio, A.D., and A.B. Wolf, 2000: The temperature dependence of the liquid water path of low clouds in the southern great plains.
While there are some similarities between the approaches, an important difference is that the slab - ocean approach allows surface and MBL temperatures to adjust to the energetic perturbation: positive energetic forcing of the surface leads to warming, weakens the inversion, and reduces low - cloud cover and liquid water path (LWP).
Czekala, H., S. Crewell, C. Simmer, and A. Thiele, 2001: Discrimination of cloud and rain liquid water path by groundbased polarized microwave radiometry.
Han, Q., W.B. Rossow, J. Zeng, and R. Welch, 2002: Three different behaviors of liquid water path of water clouds in aerosol - cloud interactions.
J.R.N. designed the study, provided ERBS, CERES, and ISCCP data, did the main analysis, and wrote the paper; R.J.A. provided standard model cloud output for CMIP5 simulations and analysed CMIP5 meteorological output; A.T.E. provided corrected PATMOS - x data; M.D.Z. provided CMIP5 COSP cloud output; C.W.O. provided MAC - LWP liquid water path data; and S.A.K. provided background information and ideas.
O'Dell, C. W., Wentz, F. J. & Bennartz, R. Cloud liquid water path from satellite - based passive microwave observations: a new climatology over the global oceans.
Based on this study, we conclude that GOES level - 2B cloud - top retrievals are a reliable tool for prediction evaluations but the algorithm's retrievals of ice water path are not.
Svensmark et al. (2009) found large global reductions in the aerosol Ångström exponent from AERONET, liquid water path from SSM / I, and cloud cover from MODIS and ISCCP after large Forbush decreases, but these results were not corroborated by other studies who found no statistically significant links between GCR and clouds at the global scale (Calogovic et al., 2010; Kristjánsson et al., 2008; Laken and Calogovic, 2011).
«Retrieving the Polar Mixed - Phase Cloud Liquid Water Path by Combining CALIOP and IIR Measurements.»
Han, Q., W.B. Rossow, J. Chou, and R.M. Welch, 1998: Global survey of the relationships of cloud albedo and liquid water path with droplet size using ISCCP.
In the extratropics these are caused by a general increase in cloud fraction in a broad range of heights, and a strong increase of cloud liquid water path in the lower troposphere.
I understand the reason — years of positive thinkers have drilled it into our heads not to watch, read or listen to the news or hang out with the «black cloud» group at the water cooler because nothing lies down that path but despair.
