A new way to measure cirrus cloud ice water content by using ice Raman scatter with Raman lidar
[1] To improve our understanding of cirrus cloud radiative impact on the current and future climate, improved knowledge of cirrus cloud microphysical properties is needed. However, long-term studies of the problem indicate that accurate cirrus cloud measurements are challenging. This is true for both, remote sensing as well as in situ sampling. This study presents a new method to remotely sense...
متن کاملObserving cirrus halos to constrain in-situ measurements of ice crystal size
In this study, characteristic optical sizes of ice crystals in synoptic cirrus are determined using airborne measurements of ice crystal size distributions, optical extinction and water content. The measurements are compared with coincident visual observations of ice cloud optical phenomena, in particular the 22◦ and 46◦ halos. In general, the 5 scattering profiles derived from the in-situ clou...

15 صفحه اولTime correlations and 1/f behavior in backscattering radar reflectivity measurements from cirrus cloud ice fluctuations
The state of the atmosphere is governed by the classical laws of fluid motion and exhibits correlations in various spatial and temporal scales. These correlations are crucial to understand the short and long term trends in climate. Cirrus clouds are important ingredients of the atmospheric boundary layer. To improve future parameterization of cirrus clouds in climate models, it is important to ...
متن کاملA two-channel, tunable diode laser-based hygrometer for measurement of water vapor and cirrus cloud ice water content in the upper troposphere and lower stratosphere
The recently developed NOAA Water instrument is a two-channel, closed-path, tunable diode laser absorption spectrometer designed for the measurement of upper troposphere/lower stratosphere water vapor and enhanced total water (vapor + inertially enhanced condensed phase) from the NASA Global Hawk unmanned aircraft system (UAS) or other high-altitude research aircraft. The instrument utilizes wa...
