Spatial statistics of marine boundary layer clouds
[1] An analysis is presented of the structure functions and scalar spectra for 25 satellitederived marine stratocumulus cloud optical depth fields. The scenes, which cover a horizontal domain of 58 58 km at a resolution of 28.5 m, are partitioned into two ensembles on the basis of cloud fraction. For the fully cloudy scenes, although there is wide scene-to-scene variability, both the average is...
متن کاملMarine boundary layer clouds at the heart of tropical cloud feedback uncertainties in climate models
[1] The radiative response of tropical clouds to global warming exhibits a large spread among climate models, and this constitutes a major source of uncertainty for climate sensitivity estimates. To better interpret the origin of that uncertainty, we analyze the sensitivity of the tropical cloud radiative forcing to a change in sea surface temperature that is simulated by 15 coupled models simu...
متن کاملCloud Computing; A New Approach to Learning and Learning
Introduction: The cloud computing and services, as a technological solution for developing educational services, can accelerate the provision and expansion of these highly useful services. This study intended to provide an overall picture of practical areas of learning services based on cloud computing teaching and learning equipment. Methods: This was a theoretical hybrid research study in whi...
متن کاملContrasting cloud composition between coupled and decoupled marine boundary layer clouds
Marine stratocumulus clouds often become decoupled from the vertical layer immediately above the ocean surface. This study contrasts cloud chemical composition between coupled and decoupled marine stratocumulus clouds for dissolved nonwater substances. Cloud water and droplet residual particle composition were measured in clouds off the California coast during three airborne experiments in July...
