This article discusses some of the challenges that have limited progress in quantifying the
radiative forcing associated with aerosol–cloud interactions (ACI) in warm (liquid-water) …

The Second Texas Air Quality Study (TexAQS II) was conducted in eastern Texas during
2005 and 2006. This 2‐year study included an intensive field campaign, TexAQS 2006/Gulf …

This paper introduces the aerosol, clouds, convection and precipitation (ACCP) program that
is currently in the process of defining a number of measurement objectives for NASA that are …

Ubiquitous shallow cumulus clouds are associated with complex variability in surface solar
irradiance (SSI). Aerosol embedded in the cloud field typically has a much smaller overall …

Radiative transfer is a 3D process, but most atmospheric models consider radiation only in
the vertical direction for computational efficiency. This results in inaccurate surface radiation …

Surface Solar Irradiance in Continental Shallow Cumulus Fields: Observations and Large-Eddy
Simulation in: Journal of the Atmospheric Sciences Volume 77 Issue 3 (2020) Jump to …

Most atmospheric models consider radiative transfer only in the vertical direction (1D), as 3D
radiative transfer calculations are too costly. Thereby, horizontal transfer of radiation is …

The CARRIBA (Cloud, Aerosol, Radiation and tuRbulence in the trade wInd regime over
BArbados) project, focused on high resolution and collocated measurements of …

Cloud and aerosol are two manifestations of what it is essentially the same physical
phenomenon: a suspension of particles in the air. The differences between the two come …

Shallow cumulus clouds exhibit highly three‐dimensional (3‐D) spatial structure leading to
complex variability in the surface solar irradiance (SSI) beneath. This variability is captured …
