Global distribution of cloud top phase from POLDER/ADEOS I
The eight months of data acquired by the POLDER instrument have now been processed. This dataset provides daily information on the global distribution of cloud top phase. We present here the results of a statistical analysis of ice and liquid phase occurrence frequencies at the global scale. Temporal variation of these frequencies above land and ocean are analyzed. These results are compared wi...
متن کاملSpace observations of cold-cloud phase change.
This study examines the vertically resolved cloud measurements from the cloud-aerosol lidar with orthogonal polarization instrument on Aqua satellite from June 2006 through May 2007 to estimate the extent to which the mixed cloud-phase composition can vary according to the ambient temperature, an important concern for the uncertainty in calculating cloud radiative effects. At -20 degrees C, the...
متن کاملParameterization of cloud droplet size distributions : 1 comparison with parcel models and observations
This work examines the efficacy of various physically-based 3 approaches derived from 1-D adiabatic parcel model frameworks (a numer-4 ical model and a simplified parameterization) to parameterize the cloud droplet 5 distribution characteristics for computing cloud effective radius and auto-conversion rate in regional/global atmospheric models. Evaluations are car-7 ried out for integrations wi...
متن کاملa comparison of teachers and supervisors, with respect to teacher efficacy and reflection
supervisors play an undeniable role in training teachers, before starting their professional experience by preparing them, at the initial years of their teaching by checking their work within the proper framework, and later on during their teaching by assessing their progress. but surprisingly, exploring their attributes, professional demands, and qualifications has remained a neglected theme i...
15 صفحه اولComparison of SEVIRI-Derived Cloud Occurrence Frequency and Cloud-Top Height with A-Train Data
To investigate the characteristics of Spinning Enhanced Visible and Infrared Imager (SEVIRI)-derived products from the UK Met Office algorithm, one year of cloud occurrence frequency (COF) and cloud-top height (CTH) data from May 2013 to April 2014 was analysed in comparison with Cloud Profiling Radar (CPR) and Cloud-Aerosol LiDAR with Orthogonal Polarization (CALIOP) cloud products observed fr...
