Sentences with phrase «significant microphysics»

Not exact matches

Nor is this a significant point in the microphysics of clouds.

The most significant changes in the new D - series cloud datasets are: 1) revised radiance calibrations to remove spurious changes in the long - term record, 2) increased cirrus detection sensitivity over land, 3) increased low - level cloud detection sensitivity in polar regions, 4) reduced biases in cirrus cloud properties using an ice crystal microphysics model in place of a liquid droplet microphysics model, and 5) increased detail about the variations of cloud properties.

Additionally, climatological models, which incorporate CCN generation mechanisms and cloud microphysics, fail to produce significant change in global - scale CCN populations, cloud optical properties, or radiative forcing (Snow - Kropla et al. 2011; Dunne et al. 2012; Kazil et al. 2012).
