Marine Boundary Layer Cloud Observations in the Azores
The recent deployment of the Atmospheric Radiation Measurement Program (ARM) Mobile Facility at Graciosa Island, Azores, in the context of the Clouds, Aerosol and Precipitation in theMarine Boundary Layer (CAP-MBL) field campaign added the most extensive (19 months) and comprehensive dataset of marine boundary layer (MBL) clouds to date. Cloud occurrence is high (60%–80%), with a summertime min...
متن کاملMarine Boundary Layer Cloud Observations at the Azores
The recent deployment of the ARM Mobile Facility at the Graciosa Island, Azores in the context of the Clouds, Aerosol and Precipitation in the Marine Boundary Layer (CAPMBL) field campaign added the most extensive and comprehensive dataset of MBL clouds to date (April 2009–December 2010). Cloud occurrence is high (60–80%) with a summertime minimum. Liquid precipitation, diagnosed as the detecti...
متن کاملModeling the chemical effects of ship exhaust in the cloud-free marine boundary layer
The chemical evolution of the exhaust plumes of ocean-going ships in the cloud-free marine boundary layer is examined with a box model. Dilution of the ship plume via entrainment of background air was treated as in studies of aircraft emissions and was found to be a very important process that significantly alters model results. We estimated the chemical lifetime (defined as the time when diffe...
متن کاملUnified Cloud and Mixing Parameterizations of the Marine Boundary Layer: EDMF and PDF-based cloud approaches
The objectives of this project are: i) to develop a unified parameterization for the Marine Boundary Layer (MBL) and ii) to implement and test this parameterization in the Navy Operational Global Atmospheric Prediction System (NOGAPS). This unified MBL parameterization will be based on two main components: (i) the Eddy-Diffusivity Mass-Flux (EDMF) parameterization of boundary layer mixing; and ...
متن کاملA method to determine the amounts of cloud-top radiative and evaporative cooling in a stratocumulus-topped boundary layer
The turbulent processes of a stratocumulus-topped marine boundary layer are not yet fully understood. Among the issues is the relative importance of the effects of cloud-top radiative and evaporative cooling in driving the stratocumulus-topped marine boundary layer turbulence, and in producing cloud break-up. A better way to analyse the relevant observations is needed. Based on the concepts of ...
